Morocco-USA, Culture, 2/12/2004

International organization "Students in free enterprise" (SIFE) presented on Tuesday to the public its Morocco branch designed to promote leadership, teamwork and communication through learning, practicing and teaching the principles of free enterprise.

The Morocco chapter of the US-based organization, that gathers 1,500 universities and 250 major companies, was set up by graduates of public and private higher schools of management and commerce studies.

Students on the newly formed SIFE Morocco teams will develop community outreach projects to meet specific needs in their communities.

On July 8, 2004, the teams will present their projects to a panel of distinguished judges at the inaugural SIFE Morocco National Competition in Casablanca. The winning team will advance to the SIFE World Cup competition, September 22-24 in Barcelona, Spain, where team members will compete against SIFE National Champions from more than 30 other countries and will be judged on the results of their projects by some of the world's most powerful business leaders. Members of the 2003 SIFE World Cup Champion Team, Drury University (USA) will travel to Morocco in February to help the new SIFE Teams get started.

Founded in 1975 in the United States, SIFE works in partnership with business and higher education to provide students the opportunity to develop leadership, teamwork and communication skills through learning, practicing and teaching the principles of free enterprise.
