Strengthening archives cooperation: Morocco and Austria sign MoU
On Wednesday in Vienna, the Austrian State Archives and the Royal Archives of Morocco signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at enhancing cooperation between the two institutions. The agreement was signed by Helmut Wohnout, Director-General of the Austrian State Archives, and Bahija Simou, Director of the Royal Archives of Morocco.
The MoU's primary objectives are to institutionalize the partnership between the two parties, foster the exchange of expertise and best practices in archival management, and enrich their respective collections. This agreement marks a significant step in the deepening of bilateral relations and is the first MoU signed by the Austrian State Archives with an African and Arab institution.
This MoU builds on a long-standing and unique historical relationship between the two nations, which have shared ties for over two centuries, focusing on peace promotion and dialogue between civilizations. The cooperation is rooted in diplomatic, cultural, and scientific exchanges, reflecting the importance of these nations in the global arena.
The signing ceremony took place in the presence of Azzeddine Farhane, Ambassador of His Majesty the King of Morocco to Vienna, in the context of celebrating over 240 years of diplomatic relations and reinforcing bilateral cooperation. During her working visit to Vienna from February 17 to 21, Ms. Simou met with prominent Austrian figures in the fields of archives, academia, and culture.
