A group of eleven talented Saint Lucians has been granted scholarships to pursue higher education in Morocco, marking a significant milestone in their academic journeys. This year’s cohort, consisting of one male and ten females, will delve into diverse fields such as business management, general medicine, law, agriculture, engineering, biology, chemistry, and geology. The scholarships are part of the Moroccan government’s Academic Cooperation Programme, facilitated by the Moroccan International Cooperation Agency (AMCI), which offers opportunities for students to study at public universities, higher education institutions, and vocational training centers, extending up to doctoral levels. During a meeting with the recipients, Saint Lucia’s Minister for Education, Shawn Edward, extended his congratulations while offering candid advice. He emphasized the challenges they might face, urging them to remain resilient and humble. Edward also expressed profound gratitude to the Moroccan government for their continued support in providing educational opportunities to Saint Lucian youth. The recipients are set to depart for Morocco by the end of November, embarking on a transformative academic journey.
