The Moroccan News Agency (MAP) organized, Monday at its headquarters in Rabat, a ceremony to honor its female staff of the journalistic and administrative bodies, on the occasion of International Women’s Day.
Committed to this tradition, MAP hands over control of all its editorial services to its women journalists, who will lead the way on March 8, a symbolic initiative to honor the Agency’s women and pay tribute to their commitment and dedication.
This is a special attention to honor the efforts of the Agency’s female staff, the strength of the institution and who play a leading role, alongside their male colleagues, in the development and influence of MAP at the national and international levels.
It is a tradition established by MAP officials to highlight their willingness to support women in their emancipation and to encourage them to take on leadership roles, whether in editorial or administrative departments.
While expressing recognition of the presence of women within MAP and the extent of their contribution to efforts to improve production and performance, this initiative is also an opportunity for women journalists across the Agency to showcase their professional capabilities.
Compared to the rather limited number in the 1980s, MAP today has 200 dedicated and militant women by spirit, i.e. 39% of the Agency’s total staff. The Agency has 101 female journalists, 10 of whom are assigned to international bureaus and 31 to regional offices.
