Positioned in northwest Africa, Morocco is a gateway between Europe, Africa, and the

Arab world. As a result of its diverse cultural history, the country has evolved to form a

complex identity and society. Within the confines of its borders, one can meet people

from all backgrounds: Berber, Arab, Jewish, Muslim, African, and European. As part of

the focus on Mediterranean Studies, IAU programs in Morocco examine challenges

that face Morocco and the Arab world today as well as the country’s relationship to its

Western European neighbors. An emphasis is placed on Arabic language studies,

religion, politics, journalism, and cultural diversity.
