March 8: Tribute to UEMF feminine strength

Like the international community, the Euromed University of Fes celebrates International Women's Rights Day on March 8, paying tribute to the resilience and achievements of all the University's female staff and students.

As a commemoration, the President of the University, Prof. Mostapha Bousmina, took the opportunity to praise the commendable efforts of UEMF women. The President has always highlighted the outstanding contribution and commitment of UEMF women to the progress and development of our university.

As an institution committed to its African and Euro-Mediterranean community, particularly regarding equal opportunities and social inclusion, UEMF places great importance on gender equity, ensuring that women have equal access to positions of responsibility compared to men. The university adopts fair recruitment policies to guarantee gender equality in professional advancement. This reflects a determined desire to create a professional environment where merit prevails above all else.

“Investing in women: speeding up the pace” was the theme of the celebrations of this 114th International Women's Rights Day, established by the UN. In this respect, the University has implemented exceptional benefits for women during maternity leave. It has also granted specific measures for mothers with children with disabilities, thus illustrating a concrete commitment to an inclusive work environment that respects individual needs.

Reflecting a combination of traditions, social changes and legislative reforms, Moroccan women today play varied and crucial roles in different areas of society. Like the UEMF woman, Moroccan women are not only leaders and influential, but also embody dynamic agents of change, actively contributing to the country's economic, social and cultural development.
