The 9th Young Arab Women Leaders conference in Morocco aimed to recognise and celebrate the contribution of Moroccan businesswomen whilst inspiring the next generation of young women leaders to contribute to the development of the national economy and to MENA long-term economic growth.
The objective of the Young Arab Women Leaders programme was to support and nurture young women entrepreneurs, community leaders and change agents in the Arab world, and to engage in dialogue and debate on challenges and opportunities for young women in leadership roles, on corporate boards, in social enterprise and tech innovation, and in the energy, finance, law and STEM sectors.
The programme brought high caliber speakers from government, business and civil society organisations together with talented, driven young women who aspire to community, business and political leadership. The 9th Young Arab Women Leaders conference was addressed by Guest of Honour Speakers Dr Assia Alaoui, Ambassador at Large, Kingdom of Morocco, and Dr Soundouss Bouhia, Senior Officer, Royal Cabinet, Kingdom of Morocco; and by distinguished Moroccan women leaders.
