Italian company to assist children of Moroccan war veterans

Italian company "Asia" will be providing assistance to social and economic projects carried out to the benefit of children of Moroccan former resisters and war veterans, under an agreement signed this Monday between the company and the high commissioner for former resisters and members of the liberation army.

The car-assembling company which has offices in Morocco will be supporting the creation of small and medium-sized enterprises by descendants of former resisters and war veterans. It will also organize information and training programs in agriculture, industry and services in order to reinforce recipients' capacities in various specialities while encouraging them to set up their own enterprises, cooperatives and associations.

The agreement also provides for the promotion of the car-assembling activity through the creation of specialized associations.
