Since Covid, many children have dropped out of school in Morocco. So we're going to try to recruit these 10-, 11-, and 12-year-olds, and then there will be others of all ages. We'll work with local public schools. The center will be open Monday to Saturday, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., to guide young people who have dropped out of school, support them, and work with their parents.

Additional quotes by Latifa Ibn Ziaten

Between 500 and 600 young people will be running. It will be beautiful. Imad loved sports; he played football, a little rugby when he was younger, swimming, and a little athletics at the beginning. He loved sports and culture; he always had a sports bag or a book in his hand. This tribute means a lot to this great boy, this great man, whom I will never forget.

My grandparents and my husband's grandparents lived in M'diq. Imad loved this place, he loved the sea, he was a boy who loved life. I buried him in M'diq because it was his choice. Every time I come, I tell him: "I think I did the right thing burying you here, it's hard for me because I'm far from you." But his grave faces the sea and he's surrounded by his family. When I miss talking to him, I buy a plane ticket and go to Morocco. When I go to see him, I stay an hour, two hours, I tell him everything, I clean the grave, I tell him I'll come back.
