IAJ SG Calls Morocco Privileged Space for Dialogue, Exchange to Improve Judicial Performance
Morocco is a privileged space for dialogue and exchange of experience to improve judicial performance, Secretary General of the International Association of Judges (IAJ) Giacomo Oberto said on Monday in Casablanca. Hosting this meeting in Morocco reflects the unwavering commitment of Moroccan judges in the pursuit of justice, both on the African continent and worldwide, he said in a statement to the press at the opening of the International Conference of the IAJ African Group, organized by Morocco's Hassania Association of Judges, under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI. Oberto also highlighted Morocco's dynamic role within the IAJ, as one of the founding members of the African Group. In a similar statement, Kouassi Marsal, President of IAJ's African Group, spoke of the event as an ideal opportunity to examine the fundamental issues relating to the independence of the judiciary, a cornerstone of the guarantee of rights and freedoms. 'This meeting also provides an opportunity to reiterate our commitment to an independent justice system, and to share best practices and innovative mechanisms for improving the judicial system', she added. Under the theme 'For an independent African justice system', the conference, held until April 24, is seen by the organizers as a means of bolstering South-South judicial cooperation, and as a forum for dialogue and reflection on justice-related issues on the continent. It is also an opportunity to promote joint judicial training, exchange best practices and consolidate cooperation between African judicial systems, with the aim of building a common African legal space in the face of challenges such as illegal immigration, cross-border crime, environmental issues and digital transformation. The opening ceremony was attended by Morocco's Secretary of State for Employment Hicham Sabiry, Wali of the Casablanca-Settat region and Governor of the Casablanca prefecture Mohamed Mhidia, and a host of judicial officials representing some twenty African countries.
