Heritage Garden for Youth Education: Development of an Interactive Public Garden in the Fes Medina

Público

In the Fes Medina, the old city of Fes, Morocco, residents have limited access to environmental education and public green spaces. Our team, working with the Tourat Mdinty Association, designed a plan to establish a public garden on the El Mokri Palace’s property to improve environmental education and interactive learning in the Fes Medina. Through extensive garden observations and expert interviews, we proposed a garden design plan to modify existing gardens on the El Mokri property, a plant list of plants in the gardens, a portfolio website, designed educational pamphlets, and compiled a list of future interactive workshops and events for visitors of the garden.
