Morocco - US sister cities:
was created to develop cultural, economic and social exchanges and strengthen bilateral and multilateral relationships between cities in Morocco and the United States through the exchange of people and ideas. These exchanges provide each community with a stake in the construction of a modern and open society as well as opportunities to engage in other cultures and proudly display their own. The main goal is to promote Peace and community building and break down barriers of misunderstanding.
