Empowering Young Moroccans Abroad: The Inaugural Jaliya Day in Casablanca

Connecting Diaspora Youth with Opportunities in Morocco

In an exclusive interview with Morocco World News (MWN), Hiba El Aidi, the founder of Morocco With Purpose, elaborated on the objectives of the recent Jaliya Day held in Casablanca. This inaugural event is designed to facilitate a stronger connection between young Moroccans living abroad and their homeland. El Aidi emphasized that the initiative is not just about nostalgia, but rather about practical engagement. Young Moroccans are encouraged to explore various avenues, including investment opportunities and job prospects back home. The initiative aims to bridge the gap between the diaspora and local institutions, providing a platform for meaningful engagement with key stakeholders in Morocco.

Spotlighting Young Entrepreneurs with Jaliya Pitch

One of the standout features of Jaliya Day was the Jaliya Pitch, an innovative platform that enables young entrepreneurs from around the globe to showcase their projects. Participants have the unique opportunity to present their business ideas to a jury composed of influential Moroccan business leaders. This initiative not only fosters entrepreneurial spirit but also provides selected participants with invaluable one-on-one mentorship and access to institutional support. By connecting aspiring business leaders with established professionals, the Jaliya Pitch aims to cultivate a thriving ecosystem for young innovators looking to make their mark in Morocco.
