As summer approaches, the debate in the city of Ifrane is reigniting over the limited swimming facilities available to children, given the lack of dedicated public pools, prompting local activists to call for solutions that ensure safe and appropriate access for this demographic.
According to data shared by local activists, the city has a number of private swimming pools, but access to them remains limited, both in terms of cost and entry requirements, raising the issue of providing public alternatives or agreements that would allow these facilities to be opened to children under appropriate conditions.
These same activists believe that the municipal council should explore the possibility of establishing partnerships with relevant institutions to expand access, particularly during the summer, when there is increased demand for water-related activities.
This issue is of particular importance, according to the same sources, given the rainfall the region has experienced this season, which has led to rising water levels in the valleys—a situation that may prompt some children to swim in unsafe areas, posing risks to their safety.
In light of these developments, calls continue for the adoption of practical solutions that balance the provision of safe recreational spaces for children with the strengthening of safety measures, as part of preparations for the summer season.
