Professional Women and Water Management: Case Study from Morocco: A Water Forum Contribution
Abstract
Globally, the issue of water management and women has thus far been almost exclusively focused on women responsible for the provision and management of water at the household and community levels. Their presence and contributions at the managerial and decision-making levels have received little attention in the past. The present paper focuses on the role women play, and can play, in the planning, management, and operation of water resources systems in Morocco. Based on this analysis, it appears to be a matter of education, training, personal choice, and time before more women will work professionally in the water-related institutions in Morocco, and also obtain more positions at the higher levels.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
