Advancements in Moroccan Astrophysics: Role of LPHEA/OUCA in Shaping Scientific Excellence

ORAL

Abstract

Scientific production in Astrophysics has surged in Morocco since 2016, with LPHEA and OUCA playing pivotal roles. This progress, unprecedented in Africa and the MENA region, merits global attention. Morocco's success in Astrophysics is attributed to international support, strategic partnerships, and investment in research infrastructure. LPHEA and OUCA lead groundbreaking research and foster innovation.A key aspect of our strategy is training and capacity building through educational programs and collaborations, nurturing a new generation of researchers. Morocco's policy of diverse international cooperation leverages resources and expertise, enriching the scientific landscape and facilitating knowledge exchange.

LPHEA and OUCA contribute significantly to scientific knowledge through research, including site testing, High angular resolution study, and exploration of near Earth Objects, exoplanets, and variable stars. Morocco's emergence as a leader in Astrophysics reflects its commitment to excellence and innovation, with LPHEA and OUCA as symbols of achievement.
