Tourab is a collective of intellectuals united by a passion for heritage and a commitment to its revitalization. QUI SOMME NOUS ?
We believe in the power of local communities and their role in advancing ecological, healthy, and sustainable construction. Collectif de jeunes, dont le point commun entre nous est notre passion pour le patrimoine et l’espoir de le revivre, on croit à la force des jeunes et leur contribution à la promotion d’une construction durable. Grâce à quelque action réussie mené par notre collectif, nous avons pu constater l’implication, la créativité et la pertinente des jeunes algériens.
