Discover Morocco with a program designed for secondary and university teachers and faculty. This study tour will give American educators the chance to develop a broad appreciation for the history and Arab-Islamic culture of the Kingdom of Morocco whose friendly relations with the United States date back over 200 years.

 

Participants will focus on issues related to areas such as education, politics, languages, and civil society. We also explore women's issues in the arts, agriculture, administration, and government as powerful traditional and increasingly contemporary forces in Morocco. Each educator will join the program with a clearly defined point of emphasis they intend to take back to their classrooms and AMA will make sure they have access to the information needed to design their classroom experience.

 

The program is specifically designed to expose educators to unique Moroccan experiences through one-to-one exchanges with community leaders, civil society, and government entities. Each curated trip is led by highly qualified speakers and guides who will help us navigate various historical sites, family home visits, and community organizations. When they return to the USA, they will carefully integrate their learnings into the academic curriculum of American schools and universities.

​

To date, AMA estimates that this program and the experiences shared by our participants in their classrooms have impacted over 5000 students and educators in the North Texas region.
