Group of Wives of African Ambassadors in Morocco

Africa in all its diversity, celebrated in Morocco

We bring together the wives of African ambassadors accredited to Morocco around one conviction: culture brings peoples closer. Through cultural, diplomatic and solidarity events, we bring the memories and talents of the continent into dialogue with the Kingdom.
