The presence of more than 200 000 people of Moroccan origin in today’s Belgium is to a large extent a consequence of inflow of workers after the bilateral agreement was signed between the two countries 40 years ago. The EMIM (‘l’Espace M_morial de l’Immmigration Marocaine) was found in order to celebrate the 40 years of Moroccan presence in Belgium. It organizes and co-ordinates a two and a half month programme of various seminars, concerts, debates which take place in different parts of the country.
