The SunPower Co-op is located in Tétouan, Morocco, and is focussed on empowering local women through solar cooking and solar food processing. The women-managed cooperative teaches solar cooker construction, solar cooking and food drying techniques, and how to recognize and establish related businesses. The co-op was co-founded and is now managed by Latifa Seroukh, a Moroccan national who works at the Abdelmalek Essaâdi University in Tétouan.
