Speaking at the House of Representatives' question time, the minister highlighted the efforts made to upgrade and equip the camps, and encourage participation of children belonging to child protection centers, and children from rural or remote areas. 1,250 children from child protection centers will benefit from this year's "Holidays for everybody" program, which will be carried out in six cities: Rabat, Nador, Tangier, Safi, Agadir, and El Jadida, she said.
