Public Policy Bootcamp Initiative – Dakhla

The Dakhla edition of the Public Policy Bootcamp Initiative will focus on the future of regional development, innovation, and cooperation between Africa and the Arab world. Held in one of Morocco’s most strategic and fast-growing cities, the bootcamp will highlight Dakhla’s role as a gateway between North Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa.

Participants in Dakhla will explore themes such as sustainable development, entrepreneurship, climate policy, and regional integration. Through group projects and interactive workshops, students will be challenged to propose realistic and actionable solutions to some of the most pressing issues facing their communities and the continent.

The Dakhla bootcamp will conclude with a policy competition in which teams present their ideas before a jury of academics and professionals. In addition to developing strong policy recommendations, participants will receive training in strategic communication, digital advocacy, and teamwork, helping them become more effective future leaders and changemakers.
