Exploring the Intersections of Poetry and Journalism
The Dar Chiir, or House of Poetry, located in the heart of Marrakech, is set to host the third iteration of its celebrated program, "Poets Journalists," on Friday, April 10, 2026. This unique cultural event aims to bridge the worlds of poetic expression and journalistic practice, showcasing the diverse talents within Morocco's literary and media landscapes. The program is designed to illuminate remarkable experiences and insights from distinguished poets and journalists, thereby reflecting the richness and vibrancy of Moroccan culture.
Notable participants in this edition include acclaimed figures such as Abdelatif Benyahia, Fatima El Baroudi, Ouidad Benmoussa, and Mohamed Belmou.
