Yet Another Ambassadorial Visit To See NEF's Moroccan Education Reform in Action
- posted Wednesday, March 14, 2007
 In back-to-back months, NEF's (Near East Foundation) highly successful literacy project in Berber villages in the High Atlas Mountains has been honored with visits from top ranking members of the diplomatic corps posted in Morocco.
French Ambassador Jean-Francois Thibault visited a project school in Timicha March 12th, just weeks after US Ambassador Thomas T. Riley paid a call at project headquarters in Ouarzazate February 2.
The French ambassador's tour was comprehensive, including a classroom visit, a preschool, and literacy course for adult women. Co-coordinator of the project, Hafida Agouzi, provided a succinct overview of NEF's pioneering innovations in teaching, administration, and educational supervision, which were also formally presented in written form.
"To our American friends, keep up your courage and carry on. Thank you for all your efforts and everything that you do," responded Ambassador Thibault.
The French ambassador was accompanied by the Moroccan director of regional education for Sous Massa Draa, as well as the government delegate and deputy for the area. |
