Moroccan Tamazight League set up in Rabat

The league, whose activities are in line with the constitutional provisions, seeks to promote culture, and the Amazigh identity and language through constructive dialogue, the league president Abdelhafid El Younssi told MAP, stressing that the Amazigh issue is an important part of the Moroccan identity and culture and a factor for national cohesion.

"We are against all forms of extremism and anything that could undermine the Moroccan shared values," he said.

The mission of the Moroccan Tamazight League, which includes forty associations related to the Amazigh culture, focuses on three key matters, namely the diversity of national identity's components, the harmony between these different elements, and the contribution to the implementation of the official aspect of the Amazigh language.
