Although it may not be well known to many
living in the North African nation, Amnesty
International keeps a close eye on the
events of the Kingdom of Morocco. With its
main branch office in Rabat, the Moroccan
Justice Ministry is working with the
nonprofit organization to train
penitentiary workers and staff about human
rights.
According to the Maghreb Arabe Presse, the
conference is set to take place in Ifrane,
Morocco, where the country’s largest ski
resort is located with a backdrop of cedar
forests. The goal of the workshop is to
start the process of setting up central and
regional groups to monitor what takes place
in Morocco’s prisons. The ultimate goal is
to work towards helping inmates be
re-introduced as productive members of
society.
Minister of Justice, Mohammed Bouzoubaa stated in a speech read by the justice department that Morocco’s prison systems are working towards educating their staff about respecting human dignity, so that those incarcerated will feel like there is a positive end goal to their situation.
Amnesty International Country Director in Morocco, Mohammed Sektaoui stated that Morocco is showing great improvements and continued will towards making Morocco a country where human rights are respected on all levels. He says that it is an “irreversible choice”.
Amnesty and Moroccan representatives are working during this three-day workshop to coincide with the National Action Plan for the Promoting of the Human Rights Culture in Morocco.
