  • Politics : Parliament Calls for Building on Moroccan Experience to Promote Tolerant Islam Values

    At an online meeting of the Speakers of the member parliaments of the Parliamentary Union of the OIC Member States, first vice-Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mohamed Sabbari, underlined the need to raise awareness about the dangers of "Islamophobia", in the recommendations presented on behalf of the Moroccan Parliament during this meeting devoted to the themes of "the repeated burning of the Holy Koran" and "climate change: its repercussions and Islamic solidarity to face it".

    Sabbari also highlighted the need to promote dialogue and coexistence between different religions, communities and cultures, by raising awareness about the dangers of hate speech and "Islamophobia".

    In this regard, he recalled that the United Nations General Assembly unanimously adopted, last July, the resolution presented by Morocco against the burning of the Holy Quran and hate speech, stressing that this resolution strongly deplores all acts of violence perpetrated against people based on their religion or beliefs, as well as all those targeting their religious symbols or Holy Books.

  • General : African Countries Capable to Fight Traffic Accidents, Says Minister

    "African countries can deal with the phenomenon of traffic accidents in the same way as many other problems," said Abdeljalil at the opening ceremony of the 2nd Kofi Annan Prize for Road Safety, pointing out that several international experiences have proved that it is possible to bring this scourge under control in a concrete way.

    "The lack of road safety should in no way affect the enormous economic and human potential of the African continent, which can be channelled into socio-economic development," he added, noting that pooling efforts to share expertise between African countries and encouraging all initiatives would help to develop and improve the level of road safety on the continent.

    In this context, Abdeljalil indicated that the 2nd edition of this Prize is of capital importance for the participating countries and authorities, as it represents a platform for the exchange of expertise and pioneering experiences at world level, notably between African countries, in the field of road safety management in its institutional and technical aspects.

  • Sport : Kitesurfing Competitions in Dakhla: Participants, Ambassadors of Pearl of the South in the World (Association Lagon Dakhla Pres.)

    This category of sport tourists is attracted to Dakhla by its unique climate, which allows water sports to be practiced all year round, especially its wind, which is prized by surfing enthusiasts, said Ouachi, who was the guest of Sunday's evening news on the "Al Oula" channel.

    The competition, scheduled to run until October 2, brings together 70 internationally renowned athletes, including national champions and top-level participants from the USA, France, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Spain, Cabo Verde, South Africa and many others.

    Thanks to Dakhla's reputation, the number of tourists is set to triple between 2020 and 2022, she stressed, pointing out that it's impossible to talk about kitesurfing without mentioning this city, which enjoys a significant national and international notoriety.

    Dakhla's prominence is confirmed by the increase in the number of flights to the city, which has risen from two a week when the international competition was first organized 13 years ago, to 28 a week today, which speaks volumes about the popularity of the pearl of southern Morocco, said Ouachi.

    In addition, she underlined that the current edition of this international competition is dedicated to solidarity with the inhabitants of the areas affected by the Al-Haouz earthquake, through a hashtag used by participants and the sports federations concerned, to help promote Morocco as a destination.

  • Economy : Green Hydrogen: Morocco Consolidates its Position as 'Privileged Partner' of EU (Spanish Media)

    « Morocco is in the process of consolidating its position as a privileged partner of the European Union, attracting investment and signing agreements to connect to the future European clean hydrogen market'', noted the Spanish portal in an article under the title ''Morocco's plan to become the new energy power''.

    As a "future power producer" and "regional energy hub", Morocco has already launched its first solar-powered hydrogen production plant, and projects itself as "a future major producer", it noted.

    It added that these projects and its proximity to Europe, which is in the midst of an energy transition, have already put Morocco in the spotlight as a "regional energy hub".

    With green hydrogen, Morocco is opting for "one of the most comprehensive energy strategies in North Africa", stressed EOM.

    In order to place Morocco in the club of countries with high potential in this sector of the future and respond to the multiple projects carried out by investors and world leaders, His Majesty King Mohammed VI gave, in November 2022, His High Instructions to draw up, as soon as possible, an operational and attractive "Morocco Offer" covering the entire value chain of the green hydrogen industry in Morocco, including not only the regulatory and institutional framework, but also the necessary infrastructure.

  • Economy : EBRD Supports Morocco's Pharmaceutical Sector with €34.5 Mln Loan

    The facility to Dislog will consist of two tranches. €24.5 million will be used to acquire Steripharma, a local pharmaceuticals manufacturer that provides affordable specialty generics medicines to replace expensive original products in the treatment of life-threatening diseases, a press release from the EBRD says.

    The remaining €10 million loan will finance the construction of a new green-certified industrial building and logistics platform as well as the installation of photovoltaic (PV) panels, the Bank adds.

    The new PV panels are expected to generate energy to power the building and will help reduce CO2 emissions. This tranche will be supported by a guarantee from the European Union (EU) through its European Fund for Sustainable Development (EFSD), in line with the objective of the EU-Morocco Green Partnership.

    The investment will enable Dislog to expand into the pharmaceuticals industry and capture higher added value in the supply chains in Morocco. The acquisition of Steripharma will complement Dislog’s established competence in reaching a wide network of small distribution outlets and help increase profit from its existing distribution channels and logistics chains.

    The loan will be accompanied by a technical assistance project funded by the EU through the EFSD programme to upgrade its human resources policies by implementing a dedicated Gender Diagnostic and Action Plan, according to the same source.

    Dislog will also receive a grant from the FINTECC Programme, which helps companies in participating EBRD economies to implement innovative climate technologies. The programme is part of, and financed through, the EBRD’s Green Economy Transition approach and is supported by the Global Environment Facility and the European Union.

    Dislog is a leading distributor of fast-moving consumer goods covering more than 70.000 retailers across the country. Founded in 2005, the company has diversified its activities into industrial production in agribusiness products, hygiene and pharmaceuticals.

    Morocco is a founding member of the EBRD and became a beneficiary of Bank resources in 2012. To date the EBRD has invested €4.2 billion in the country through 95 projects.

    The Council will conclude its work by examining proposals for appointments to higher office in accordance with the provisions of Article 92 of the Constitution, according to the same source.
