Abderrahim Ouadrassi
I was born in Tangier and I live in Mallorca. Between the two lies a strait fourteen kilometres wide that has shaped my life and, over time, the way I look at things: almost everything that matters between Europe and Africa either passes through it or resembles what happens there.
At SAIF.WORLD I write about that relationship: Spain and Morocco, the corridors that connect Africa to the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, energy, borders, and the cities that act as bridges. I try to read each issue from both shores, to separate what is announced from what is built, and to cite my sources.
I am President of the EuroAfrica Foundation, which works on cooperation and dialogue between Europe and Africa. I am the author of Africalización (Esdrújula Ediciones, 2021) and since April 2021 I have written a fortnightly column for the Spanish daily Última Hora.
Other activities. SAIF.WORLD is an author-led publication. When I write about initiatives of the EuroAfrica Foundation, which I chair, I say so in the text. I also work as an executive coach at AbdeCoach, a private professional activity kept separate from this publication.
