On September 8, a massive earthquake struck the Marrakesh–Safi region of Morocco, the largest recorded in the country's history and the deadliest since 1960. CMES mourns the thousands of lives lost in this disaster. Local and international rescue and relief efforts are underway. A group of prominent Moroccan scholars in the United States have set up a GoFundMe to raise funds for relief efforts and are working with local NGOs and community leaders to ensure all funds make the biggest, most direct impact to support families.
