EU’s Erasmus+ Program Awards Over 2,800 Scholarships to Moroccan Students and Educators

Teachers and administrative staff have benefited from half of the national quota of the "Eramus+" scholarship since 2014. The other half went to students.

The allocation of these scholarships is done according to rigorous and well-defined criteria, indicates a press release from the Coordination of the National Office of this Program. Among them are international credit mobility, the "Erasmus mundus joint master degree", "Capacity building" and the "Jean Monnet" action, notes the newspaper Libération.

Before an audience of Moroccan higher education personalities and EU member states, the European Union ambassador, Claudia Wiedey, congratulated the academic world for its commitment, without forgetting to highlight the advantages of the program in question: "The ’Erasmus+’ Program is an island where the universal values shared by us all continue to exist", despite the threat of identity withdrawal.

On this occasion, testimonies revealed the impact of this Program on the professional career, as well as on the personal life of the Moroccan beneficiaries.
