LET'S TALK ABOUT MOROCCO ...
EDUCATION NEEDS YOUR HELP
Morocco is 1 of the 25 least developed countries in the world in terms of schooling and is now living in a very critical situation regarding their education.
Due to several reasons but mostly because of poverty and the lack of support from the government, a third of Morocco’s child population don’t have access to school.
The rate of illiteracy among children has reached 32.2%.
The lack of schools in Morocco in rural areas is presenting a considerable issue for children. They have to walk miles and miles to reach school in difficult and dangerous conditions.

According to UNICEF, 1.53 million children don’t go to school, and they expect that it will rise to 1.68 in 2030 .
