Mahjouba

Mahjouba: Based out of Marrakech, Morocco, DHE members worked in collaboration with Artist-in-Residence Eric Van Hove on his Mahjouba Initiative to design an electric moped that Moroccan craftsmen can mostly hand make to help reinvigorate the dying craft market. Over the course of two travel trips, students lived right next to a workshop where they collaborated with the craftsmen to redesign the moped’s transmission. While in Morocco, students participated in a think tank, conducted a local university reach-out, and collaborated with Tuck School of Business.
