Amazigh Cultural Heritage

Amazigh cultural heritage is very rich and varied.  This presentation is meant to provide a brief inventory of Amazigh cultural potential and assets, with a focus on its material components such as architecture, jewelry, carpets, etc.

These heritage constituents are both an affirmation of identity and a vital resource for local development.
