MedPartnership-MedMPAnet Project in Morocco

A joint meeting between the ‘Haut Commissariat aux Eaux et Forêts et à la Lutte contre la Désertification’ (HCEFLCD) and the RAC/SPA-MedMPAnet Project was organized on 28 April 2013, in Rabat, Morocco. The meeting was an opportunity to present the progress made and discuss the results achieved in the country.

Mr. Mohammed Ribi, Head of the Nature Parks and Reserves Division (of the HCEFLCD), has expressed his satisfaction with the outcomes of the meeting and especially the results of the studies achieved under the Project.

Further to this first phase and under the MedPartnership project, it is anticipated to elaborate a management plan, including the setting-up of a sustainable financing mechanism, for the future MPA of the Cap des Trois Fourches (Northern Morocco) before the end of 2014.
