a delegation from Berkane, including the president of the provincial council, the head of the social action division (part of the National Initiative for Human Development), the director of Majal Berkane, and the president of the provincial associationfor education improvement and generalization, visited the headquarters of Morocco’s main educational organization. Their purpose was to hold an interactive meeting aimed at promoting and disseminating Berkane’s experience in school transportation at the national level.
The success of the association-led school transportation initiative is now well-known, especially after repeated committee visits. This achievement prompted the Permanent Commission for Education and Training of the Higher Council for Education and Training for All, as well as the Permanent Commission for Education, Training, and Scientific Research of the Higher Council for Education and Training and Scientific Research, to invite the Provincial Council to present an exhibition on its precise digital monitoring of school transportation—an innovative and unprecedented initiative at the national level.
The interactive session took place at the headquarters of the Higher Council for Education and Training and Scientific Research on Friday, March 22. Representatives from the Provincial Association for Education Improvement and Generalization in Berkane, the Provincial Council, Berkane, and the Local Development Company Majal Berkane participated. The objective was to share Berkane Provincial Council’s experience with the permanent commissions, in the presence of researchers.
This interactive session followed consultations with members of the Berkane Provincial Council. The significant results achieved in the field of school transportation and precise digital monitoring by the Berkane province, as part of projects aimed at promoting education and reducing school dropout rates, motivated this organizational request.
During the interactive meeting, association representatives and the Berkane Provincial Council presented the initiative, discussing its conception, achievements, challenges encountered during implementation, opportunities it provides, and the possibility of generalizing it to other provinces in the Kingdom, taking into account each region’s specificities
