In April 2024 in Rabat, Morocco and Djibouti signed two memorandums of understanding (MoUs) to strengthen cooperation between the two countries in the fields of health and social protection.
The first agreement aims to strengthen cooperation between Morocco and Djibouti in the field of social protection, while the second establishes a framework for cooperation and partnership between the CHU de Rabat and the Caisse Nationale de Sécurité Sociale de Djibouti, aimed at building the capacity of healthcare professionals from both countries in three main areas, namely medical and pharmaceutical, nursing and administrative and financial.
“ This historic initiative is part of the sharing of Moroccan expertise in the fields of health and social protection with all brotherly African countries ” Khalid Ait Taleb, Moroccan Minister of Health and Social Protection.
Omar Abdi Saïd, Djibouti’s Minister of Labor in charge of Formalizing Social Protection, welcomed the fruitful cooperation between his country and the Kingdom of Morocco in the fields of health and social protection.
He went on to say that, through this partnership, his country was seeking to benefit from Moroccan expertise in medical and paramedical training and modern technologies in the health sector, pointing out that “a large number of Djibouti’s health executives are trained in Moroccan establishments”.
The signing of these two MoUs is in line with the strengthening of cooperation between Morocco and Djibouti in the fields of health and social protection, and with the new dynamic of bilateral relations in various areas.
