Description
Adult women from the northern districts of Marseille, many of whom are mothers or grandmothers born in the city, attend free swimming lessons, an initiative launched in 2020. "There's the sea, you have to enjoy life!" says Karima Kouider, one of the participants, her swim cap snugly on her head. For Brahim Timricht, founder of the association Le Grand Bleu, which started the program, these lessons are a way to tackle the "divides" and "inequalities" in the city, reflected in part by whether or not people know how to swim.
