His Royal Highness Prince Moulay Rachid celebrates his 55th birthday this Friday, an occasion marked by the Moroccan people and the Royal Family with heartfelt admiration and joy. The milestone provides an opportunity to reflect on the Prince's exceptional contributions to Morocco’s cultural, social, and diplomatic spheres.

A distinguished academic journey

Born on June 20, 1970, in Rabat, Prince Moulay Rachid pursued an illustrious academic path. In May 1993, he graduated with honors, earning a degree in public law and comparative law from the Faculty of Juridical, Economic, and Social Sciences in Rabat.

His academic journey culminated in 2001 when he defended his doctoral thesis at the University Montesquieu-Bordeaux IV on the Organization of the Islamic Conference, receiving high praise for the quality and significance of his work.

Leadership in social and cultural initiatives

From an early age, Prince Moulay Rachid demonstrated a strong commitment to cultural, social, and sporting activities. As President of the Moroccan National Scout Federation since 1997, he has revitalized the organization with new energy. He also heads the Royal Moroccan Hunting Arms Shooting Federation, the Marrakech International Film Festival Foundation, and the Hassan II Golf Trophy Association. Since 2018, he has presided over the Royal Moroccan Golf Federation, emphasizing the development of the sport in Morocco.

Representation on the global stage

Prince Moulay Rachid has consistently represented Morocco on the regional and international stage, reinforcing the country's stature. His duties include presiding over major ceremonies and official events, as well as representing His Majesty King Mohammed VI in significant domestic and global gatherings.

In recent months, the Prince has hosted and attended several high-profile events. These include the 30th edition of the International Book and Publishing Fair in Rabat and the reopening of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris, where he represented Morocco alongside international dignitaries. He has also overseen key cultural and sporting events, such as the 49th edition of the Hassan II Golf Trophy and the Marrakech International Film Festival.
