Maghreban sport ministers meet in Rabat
Maghreb, Sports, 12/25/2001
The council of Maghreban ministers of youth and sports convenes its 7th session in Rabat December 25-28 to sketch a strategy meant to consolidate the cooperation relations existing between the member countries of the Arab Maghreb Union (UMA) in matters of sports.
The session will also assess and update activities and programs of the Maghreban youth tourism agency and the Maghreban sports union as well as the statutes of the Maghreban union of vocational training institutes dealing with childhood, youth and sports.
UMA was set up in Marrakesh in 1989 by Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia. Its structures were however paralyzed for years due to strained relations between some member countries and especially between Morocco and Algeria over Algiers' direct involvement in the Sahara issue.
