Overview of the project

Ecopark Ihrir oasis *
Our goal is to revitalize the place and make it an environmental and cultural space, which will welcome researchers, artists and intellectuals, in the middle of the greenery of the desert. A kind of refuge made of ecological constructions in the middle of an eco-park, for research and actions for the preservation of fragile ecosystems (oasis and wetlands), in pure relaxation.
It is the environment and culture that will watch over the development of ecological tourism from now on in the oasis of Ihrir and its surroundings. The Aedd centre will become the ideal place for those who want to retreat, to be with their fellow human beings, in a very special atmosphere.
