The Foundation’s activity report highlights that the 2019 and 2020 financial years were marked by the acquisition of new competences and the improvement of the quality of services, centered on six areas: audiovisual, web media, soft skills, social coverage, academic excellence and activities.
The MAP Foundation carried out a comprehensive training program with CIFAP, the European leader in audiovisual and journalism training, where 16 employees received training in community management. A program with a volume of 160 Days covering the various multimedia contents specific to the different social networks, while, for the personal development component, 37 new recruits participated in a cycle on the subject under the theme “Cultivating excellence to integrate MAP21”, that is a volume of 592 Days.
In the same context, the agreement concluded by the MAP Foundation with the training institute of the Ministry of Finance, allowed the “Economy and Finance” journalists and general resources staff to benefit from 210 days of in-person training, according to the report.
Regarding the improvement of managerial skills, the FMAP began, in 2020 on behalf of MAP, the implementation of a training program entitled “The Manager for Any Adversity”.
Regarding the medical coverage, the FMAP has concluded a new contract for a more advantageous hospital coverage in return for a more competitive policy.
In addition, for the year 2019, 48 children of active and retired staff participated in the 2019 summer camp and 16 active and retired staff received the award of merit allowing them to perform the ritual of Umrah, while that 4 active and retired agents were able to make the pilgrimage to Mecca.
As for the 2021 action plan, it provides for the resumption of training activities and support for the launch of the M24 television channel and RIM Radio, a seminar for MAP poles, the construction of the new FMAP headquarters and the launch of MAP Institute.
In a speech on this occasion, president of MAP Foundation Khalil Hachimi Idrissi said he was “satisfied” with the quality of the services offered by the Foundation to all the staff of the agency, especially in this health crisis, while fulfilling its tasks with regard to beneficiaries (monitoring, treatment, screening, isolation, etc.). The MAP Foundation was there at the right time, said Hachimi Idrissi.
Referring to the institution’s future projects, the president of FMAP announced the launch in 2021 of construction works of the new headquarters of the Foundation, as well as the creation of MAP Institute which will have for vocation, as a Think tank, to support MAP research activities, in particular media studies and their development.
Hachimi Idrissi took the opportunity to highlight the issue of integrating new recruits into MAP, calling it a “strategic idea”. In this context, he stressed the importance of training in the acquisition of new skills (languages, soft skills, etc.).
In this regard, Hachimi Idrissi recalled the need for the participation of MAP regional and international poles in this dynamic in terms of integration, training and capacity building, ensuring that the mobility of MAP staff is intrinsically linked to the mastery of foreign languages.
For his part, Secretary General of MAP Rachid Boumhil, who presented the activity and financial reports (2019-2020) as well as the Action Plan and the 2021 budget of the FMAP, said in a statement to M24, that the improvement of social benefits is “the basis of the Foundation’s action, ie 70% of its operating costs”.
“2021 is considered as a year of resumption of in-person training which was slightly disrupted by covid-19”, he said, stressing that a program, dedicated to regional and international poles, will reflect MAP’s new strategy in terms of international mobility and everything related to the M24 channel and RIM Radio.
