The studies and research that have been done interest “the consequences of the application of the family code on Moroccans (Moudouwana) living abroad, the consequences of the kafala in migration, Moroccan seasonal spouses in Spain and unaccompanied minors in Europe, “she said.
Feminization is one of the most important mutations experienced by Moroccan immigration since the beginning of the 20th century “where women make up 50% of the Moroccans living abroad”. Arriving in Europe through family reunification in the first half of the last century, the migrant woman now embarks alone adventure to emigrate.
On the angle of unaccompanied minors, especially in Spain, Ms Rhouch said “this population, which can be an extraordinary force for the countries of origin and host countries, can also, by lack of education and care, become an easy victim of delinquency and radicalization. “
Ms. Azmy spoke about “the aging of women in immigration who, in the event of divorce for example, find themselves without means of survival”. This is one of the most noticeale issue in France where Moroccan migration has reached its fourth generation, she said, stating that “Moroccan women have different and specific problems in the society in which they live “.
Ms. Azmy also called for the commitment of men for women’s causes because “feminism can not progress without the man who is at the center of all women’s issues” and invited all actors and activists to persevere because “No on could have ever imagined, that in 2018, 12 French deputies would be of Moroccan origin “.
