Rabat – The Euromed Institute of Law and Political Sciences (IEMSJP) has appointed to its board the President and founder of the Bouabate Fes Association Leila Bennis.
Bennis is known in Morocco for having founded the “Bouabate Fes Association” in October 2010 to honor and pay tribute to influential and pioneering Moroccan women who have reached high ranks in many fields.
The association organizes various cultural and educational activities, mainly dedicated to women, including two major events per year. The first event takes place on March 8, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, while the second is held on National Women’s day, on October 10.
Last March, “Bouabate Fes” – meaning “the gate of Fes” in Arabic – organized an event on the occasion of Women’s International Day, honoring several successful men and women from the fields of education, justice, industry, and entrepreneurship.
President of Euromed University of Fes Mostapha Bousmina sent a letter to Bennis confirming her designation as a member of the board of the IEMSJP. “It is my pleasure to confirm your designation as a member of the board,” he wrote, adding “I have no doubt that your contribution to the development of the institute and its growth will be most appreciated.”
