King inaugurates hostel for impoverished girls in Ain Louh

Morocco's King Mohammed VI inaugurated Wednesday in Ain Louh (42Km west of Ifran) a hostel that would benefit to young impoverished girls who are pursuing their high school education in the region.

The hostel, to cost 1,800,000 Dhs (USD 200,000), is aimed at fighting school dropout, reinforcing housing capacities and providing ripe conditions for needy girl students to allow them pursue their education in an appropriate environment.

This move is part of the sustainable process to meet the needs of populations in poor regions and support schooling, notably girls' education.
