The Fès Forum on the Alliance of Civilizations, cultural diversity, and Euro-Mediterranean partnership will take place, from 7 to 10 December next, around the theme "Investing in human capital through education and knowledge in Arab countries: A panacea for sustainable development".
This Forum will seek to “elucidate minds, provide scholarly analyses, put an end to confusion, perceive, and understand what is at stake, so as to be able to assume the necessary metamorphoses”, according to a presentation note from the Moroccan Interdisciplinary Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CMIESI), its main initiator.
This meeting thus aspires to “trace a true institutional roadmap”, by highlighting the strategies that States must follow following the latest political changes that have occurred in the region, to ensure the development of their nations.
The axes that will be submitted to the debate of the congress participants concern, among others, the Arab world put to the test by changes, the new Arab order and the questioning of old institutional balances, the Arab-Muslim world facing the challenges of regional integration, the factors of development between theorisation and practice, investing in human capital in Arab countries, and the ups and downs of the educational system and knowledge transmission in Arab countries.
The personalities present will also examine the relationship between education, training, and sustainable development, employability and unemployment in Arab countries, skills for the jobs of tomorrow, and Arab-Muslim nationals abroad and the challenges of developing their country of origin.
Founded in March 2007, the CMIESI is a centre for reflection, study, research, and multidisciplinary expertise, dealing with complex strategic, diplomatic, and international issues, but also with the social, economic, and political situation of a country or geopolitical areas.
