CCME Seminar to Explore Moroccan Migrant Women’s Integration and History

The study "Moroccan migrant women: trajectories, itineraries and modes of integration" is a work carried out by the sociologist and migration specialist, Fatima Ait Ben Lmadani. A study which, according to the CCME, is part of a new collection entitled "The Council’s Notes", and whose aim is to restore the historical stages known or unknown of migrations. The study does not only take into account the migrations of recent years. It went back to the 1960s, even mentioning the emigration of single women.

The author is not new to publication on migration. In 2018, she published a work entitled: "Illegitimate old age? Moroccan migrant women or the winding paths of recognition." It is an analysis of the mutations but also of the discriminations and prejudices suffered by these migrant women, specifies the CCME press release.

According to the President of the CCME, Driss El Yazami, "this format will allow, we hope, regular updates on these issues. Several other studies are being finalized." The scientific seminar will be held at the Council’s headquarters in Rabat from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., in person and remotely, and will bring together specialists in female migration from Morocco, France, Belgium and the United Kingdom, concludes the press release.
