The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has granted Morocco $94 million to finance the kingdom’s inclusive socio-economic development program. The grant related agreement was signed Wednesday in Rabat. The inclusive socio-economic development program has three components, according to MAP. The first concerns an integrated local development program that will encompass the economic growth and governance sector in the regions of Marrakech-Safi and Beni Mellal-Khenifra. One of these partnerships concerns the setting up of a virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology center within a university institution.
