Minister of Digital Transition and Administrative Reform, Amal Al-Falah Al-Saghrouni has received the Vice President of the Dakhla-Wadi Al-Dahab Region, Mr. Buttal Al-Mubaraki to follow up on the implementation of two strategic agreements signed in November 2025. The meeting emphasized ongoing cooperation to advance projects in artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, digital sovereignty, the digital economy, and skills development.

The first project focuses on the establishment of the Igudar Dakhla green data centers, with a capacity of up to 500 MW, powered entirely by renewable energy. The initiative is designed to position Dakhla as a future hub for data services and a low-carbon digital economy.

The second project involves the creation of the Al-Jazari Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Energy Transition, which will serve as a centre for training, research, innovation support, and the integration of artificial intelligence into energy development.

These projects mark a new phase in the region’s integrated development strategy, aligning with Morocco’s national objectives to strengthen digital sovereignty and promote a sustainable, green economy.
