PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U. S. Mission in Morocco’s Public Affairs Office is pleased to announce a competition to award a cooperative agreement in connection with planned youth outreach in key Moroccan cities celebrating the bicentennial of the U. S. Legation in Tangier.
The Public Affairs Office invites proposals from Moroccan or American non-profit organizations operating in Morocco to organize a series of innovative activities, outlined below, to engage Moroccan university students and young professionals in target locations around the themes of prosperity, security, and cultural exchange.
Activities should emphasize the shared history, values, and mutual benefits of the U.S.-Moroccan relationship.
The awardee will work in close cooperation with the U. S. Embassy to plan and execute this program.
The year 2021 will mark the 200-year anniversary of the founding of the American Legation at Tangier, the oldest U. S. diplomatic property in the world.
The bicentennial celebration will serve as the catalyst for a year-long campaign entitled 200 Years of Friendship:
Prosperity, Security, and Cultural Exchange” which will highlight the history, strength, and mutual benefit of the U.S.-Moroccan partnership and the reach of our economic, security, and cultural cooperation.
The capstone of these bicentennial activities will be a U.S.-Government sponsored museum exhibit focusing on the U.S.-Moroccan partnership, which will be on display at the National Library in Rabat beginning from mid-May and then move to Casablanca from mid-September through the end of 202 1. The exhibition itself will be broken into 4 topic areas:
U.S.-Moroccan diplomatic history, American artists influenced by Morocco, Operation Torch and the WWII years in the Legation, and Moroccan influences on U. S. popular culture.
