The third edition of the Open Days event organized by the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) in Tangiers has attracted 515,000 Visitors. For the DGSN, the event is an “opportunity to interact positively with the expectations of citizens,” and serves as a platform to introduce DGSN’ bodies and to explain the different specializations within Morocco’s security units. Besides awareness-raising, the event featured several scientific and academic symposiums related to citizens’ interest in security issues. The Open Days are part of Morocco’s security initiative to foster communication, trust, and respect between security forces and citizens. Last year’s annual Open Days took place in Marrakech and attracted more than 260,000 visitors.
