In the economic and social crisis that affects the world and in particular the countries of the South, unemployment is considered to be the most disastrous consequence that weighs on young people by plunging them into desperate poverty. Consequently, the sectors of public life, including sport, contribute to providing structural responses. This study identifies operational professions and offers their training.

Innovation is a powerful driver of development and improved well-being, which can be mobilized to meet social and global challenges. According to the OECD’s Oslo Manual, innovation is defined as «the implementation of a new or substantially improved product (good or service) or (production) process, a new marketing method or a new organizational method in business practices, workplace organization or external relations». This study explores the global innovation index and sustainable development indicators through an in-depth descriptive analysis of the impact of sustainable development on innovation in Morocco. After data analysis and processing, the results highlight the key factors influencing the Global Innovation Index (GII). They make it possible to identify the levers of growth and to steer public policies towards more effective strategies adapted to local realities.

Engineers are recognized as key players in the development of innovative projects thanks to their professional experience and their training. However, in some growing countries such as Morocco, involving innovation in engineering education is poorly integrated within engineering training curricula. In this study, we propose an innovation process model proper to the design and realization of innovative projects within engineering schools, particularly in the field of mechanical engineering. Our modeling approach is based on systems engineering. Experiments were conducted in the mechanical engineering department of an engineering school in Morocco to implement the proposed model in student projects. The students were guided to implement the proposed process and deploy innovative methods, then a quantitative assessment that considered their innovativeness and adherence to the innovation process was led. The innovativeness of the projects was assessed based on international patterning criteria, and an assessment system was used to analyze the level of compliance of the demonstration projects with the steps and support means and methods of the model’s process. The findings of the study enabled us to improve our model of the innovation process by including methodologies and instruments personalized to the environment of engineering schools and based on a technological approach that emphasizes interdisciplinary theoretical and methodological contributions. The current study enabled us to confirm that an innovative project carried out within an environment characterized by the interaction and management of a set of material and human resources and methods and engineering skills can help to boost innovation in engineering education.

This article is a study of the chapter « Les Arabes et leur rapport au vin selon les voyageurs occidentaux » by Mohammed Bernoussi, taken from the book Introduction à l’interculturel. It analyzes how wine, prohibited in Muslim culture yet sometimes consumed clandestinely, becomes an ambivalent symbol in Western travel accounts from the Middle Ages to the 19th century. Taking an interdisciplinary approachcombining anthropology, semiotics, and history, the study highlights the tensions and contradictions that this product evokes. Through this lens, it sheds light on intercultural dynamics and representations of otherness, showing how wine crystallizes both the intriguing subtleties and the recurring stereotypes that characterize the encounter between the Muslim Orient and the Christian West.
