Broken bricks, bent rods of rebar and pieces of kitchen floors remain but have been swept into neater piles alongside plastic tents where the displaced now live. Some await funds to reconstruct their homes. Others await approval of their blueprints.<\/p>\n<p>The region shook by the earthquake is full of impoverished agricultural villages like Imi N\u2019tala accessible only via bumpy, unmaintained roads. Associated Press reporters revisited half a dozen of them last week ahead of the one-year anniversary. In some places, residents awaiting governmental permission have begun reconstructing homes on an ad hoc basis. Elsewhere, people tired of the stuffiness of plastic tents have moved back into their cracked homes or decamped to larger cities, abandoning their old lives. Streets have been neatly swept in towns like Amizmiz and Moulay Brahim, although cracked buildings and piles of rubble remain, much as they were in the days after the quake.<\/p>\n<p>The rhythms of normal life have somewhat resumed in some of the province\u2019s larger towns, where rebuilding efforts on roads, homes, schools and businesses are underway and some residents have been provided metal container homes. But the majority of those displaced from the 55,000 homes destroyed by the temblor remain vulnerable to summer\u2019s heat and winter\u2019s cold, living in plastic tents, impatient to return.<\/p>\n<p>Mohamed Soumer, a 69-year-old retiree who lost his son in last year&#8217;s earthquake, is angry because local authorities have forbidden him from rebuilding his home on the same steep mountainside due to safety concerns. He now spends his days with his wife in a plastic tent near his now-rubbled home and fears moving elsewhere and restarting his life in a larger, more expensive area.\u201cResidents want to stay here because they have land where they grow vegetables to make a living,\u201d he said. \u201cIf they go somewhere else and abandon this place, they will not be able to live there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The government said it would provide households monthly stipends in the aftermath of the earthquake and additional funds for seismically safe reconstruction. But its disbursal has been uneven, residents say, with many still waiting for funds or for reconstruction to commence.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2024\/09\/08\/a-year-after-the-quake-in-morocco-many-homes-still-not-re-built\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2024\/09\/08\/a-year-after-the-quake-in-morocco-many-homes-still-not-re-built\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/a-year-after-the-quake-in-morocco-many-homes-still-not-re-built\/\">A year after the quake in Morocco many homes still not re-built<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[555,7620,16016,16017,1091],"class_list":["post-133596","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-csr-news-en","tag-morocco","tag-no-re-built","tag-the-quake","tag-year"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133596","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=133596"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133596\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=133596"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=133596"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=133596"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
