Rabat – NKOON, a 10-month cultural and personal development program for young adults by UM6P and Cultur.Ed, has opened applications for its 2026-2027 edition to young Moroccans from El Jadida and Khouribga.
“NKOON” means “I become””, in the Moroccan dialect.
The program encourages youth to take full ownership of their personal careers, and improve their self-confidence about making positive change in their own communities.
