Who they are

The Zekara Berbers are an indigenous community living in the mountainous regions of eastern Morocco. With a strong ancestral heritage and communal traditions preserved over centuries, they maintain close ties to the land and to Berber customs.

Their identity is deeply shaped by Islamic faith and life in rural villages, where hospitality and mutual solidarity among families sustain daily life.
