The Executive Council of the African Union (AU) opened its 45th session in Accra, Ghana last week. Morocco was represented at this session by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates Nasser Bourita.
During this session, foreign ministers of the AU member states examined several reports, including the report on the activities of the AU’s 2024 theme ‘Educate an African fit for the 21st Century: Building resilient education systems for increased access to inclusive, lifelong, quality, and relevant learning in Africa’.
A number of issues were also addressed, including AU’s participation in the G20 and the African Union’s partnerships.
Morocco’s participation in this session was an opportunity to promote Moroccan candidacies for important bodies of the pan-African organisation. Nadia Annouz, Vice-President of the Moroccan National Authority for Probity, Prevention, and Fight against Corruption, was elected on Friday as a member of the African Union (AU) Advisory Board Against Corruption (AUABC) for a 6-year term.
Morocco’s candidate, Nadia Annouz, earned the member position reserved for the Northern Region on the AUABC with a large majority of 35 votes.
This election shows the expertise of Morocco in the fight against corruption at national and continental level.
