More than 150 youth leaders and ministers representing 49 African countries attended this edition including the youth ministers of Kenya, Madagascar, and Botswana.
A lot of young Moroccans work in this union that is constructed after voting operations. This only shows the implication of morocco and its integration into international youth-related bodies.
The Moroccan Ministry of culture ensured that this edition would go over various primordial matters regarding African youth such as the 2063 agenda being a strategic master plan for transforming Africa into the global powerhouse of the future.
The role of the AU and its priorities were underlined by Bensaid and all the representatives.
The Moroccan minister met with the other African youth ministers to discuss ways to advance their status on the continent, in addition to developing cultural partnerships between their countries.
This was followed by the official beginning of the activities of the consultative dialogue.
