Joudia Touri, a 31-year-old Moroccan neurosurgeon, is competing for a seat on Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket through the SERA program, which offers suborbital flights to citizens from countries with little or no space presence. She sees the mission as both a childhood dream and an opportunity to link her work in medicine with the future of space exploration, while carrying Morocco’s flag into an uncharted field.
Walking across Morocco, from Fès to Laayoune, to celebrate national heritage and inspire collective commitment: this is the ambitious journey launched by Khadija Gamraoui, a prominent figure in the Franco-Moroccan diaspora, marking the 50th anniversary of the Green March. Her initiative, the «March of the Women of the Diaspora», weaves together symbolism, memory, femininity, and intergenerational transmission.
