The “Together, We Hear Each Other Better” program is a concrete expression of the Vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI for strengthening the bonds of brotherhood and solidarity between peoples, Naïma Ben Yahia, Minister of Solidarity, Social Inclusion and Family, said on Wednesday in Nairobi.
This program, unique worldwide, is part of efforts to strengthen friendly and fraternal ties between Morocco and African countries, the minister said in a statement to the press on Wednesday in Nairobi at the launch of the fourth phase of the “Together, We Hear Each Other Better” program.
This program is part of the ongoing efforts of the Lalla Asmaa Foundation, chaired by HRH Princess Lalla Asmaa, to support deaf and hard-of-hearing children, Ben Yahia said, noting that it is a unique experience on a global scale, as it is exported to countries in Africa, Latin America, and the MENA region.
For his part, His Majesty the King’s Ambassador to the Republic of Kenya and the Republic of South Sudan, Abderrazzak Laassel, emphasized that this initiative is part of efforts to strengthen cooperation between Morocco and Kenya, recalling that it is aligned with the enlightened vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, who places cooperation and development in Africa at the heart of the Kingdom’s diplomatic strategy.
The launch of this unique program in Kenya perfectly embodies His Majesty the King’s Will to promote African cooperation, he added.
The fourth phase of the “Together, We Hear Each Other Better” program was launched Wednesday at Kenyatta National Hospital in Nairobi by Her Royal Highness Princess Lalla Asmaa, President of the Lalla Asmaa Foundation, and Her Excellency Rachel Ruto, First Lady of the Republic of Kenya, President of the Voice of Children Foundation.
This operation, fully in line with the humanist and solidarity-based Vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist Him, for strong and effective South-South cooperation, will consist of cochlear implant surgery for some 70 Kenyan children with profound hearing loss, enabling these young people to discover the world of sound, communicate, learn and flourish.
