Maghreban feminist groups meet in Rabat

Maghreban feminist groups opened over the weekend in Rabat a conference on gender equality in North Africa.

The conference is debating a Maghreban strategy meant to enable the region's women take up the challenges posed to them.

Coordination of efforts between women's organizations in Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia are also on the agenda of the meeting.

The conference is sponsored by Collectif 95 Maghreb Egalite, set up in 1992 to plead for the promotion of Maghreban women's conditions.
