An artistic evening was organized on Saturday in Imouzzer Kandar to celebrate the Amazigh New Year 2975.
This evening, initiated by the regional delegation of the World Organization for Peace and Hope for Humanity and Homelands, featured musical performances presented by the Inshaden Ijaouten group and the Amazigh artist Miloud Oussadden.
The event was also enhanced by performances from the artist Abdelrrafie Bennouna and Ahidous art groups, who treated the audience to authentic Amazigh songs and dances.
In a speech delivered on this occasion, Saâda Hassioui, regional delegate of the World Organization for Peace and Hope for Humanity and Homelands, welcomed the royal decision to make the Amazigh New Year (January 14) an official national holiday, adding that this decision is part of the constitutional consecration of Amazigh as an official language of the country, alongside Arabic, thus strengthening its place in public life.
She added that this measure contributes to promoting the values of coexistence and cultural diversity, given its symbolic, social, and economic significance.
According to the speaker, this decision should encourage festive traditions and stimulate cultural tourism in regions where these celebrations hold particular importance.
She also affirmed that this royal initiative, widely applauded by political and associative actors in Morocco, represents a significant step forward in the process of implementing the official status of Amazigh and its integration into public life. This event aims to promote Amazigh culture as an essential pillar of Moroccan identity and to strengthen the values of coexistence and cultural openness.
