Located on the Atlantic Coast, Morocco is an ethnically diverse country with a rich culture and civilization. Morocco has been a gateway to many people; Arabs, Romans, Moors, Jews, Vandals, Berbers and the Sub-Saharan Africans, all whom have left their imprint still visible the countries cities, towns, village and unique architecture.
Morocco is the third most populous Arab country in the World. Most Moroccans are Arab, Berber, or mixed Arab-Berber stock. About three-quarters of all present-day Moroccans are of Berber descent, while Arabs form the second largest ethnic group. Arabic is the national language, also French is widely used and understood. English is quickly becoming the foreign language of choice among educated youth (after Arabic and French). As a result of national education reforms English will be taught in all public schools from the fourth year on. In Morocco primary school education is free and compulsory until age 15. Nevertheless, many children – particularly girls – still do not attend school. The country's literacy is about 50%, but reaches as high as 90% among girls in rural regions. 
In Morocco volunteers have a chance to explore imperial cities, wander through medieval souks, marvel at the Moorish architectural, enjoy the sites, smells and sounds of the largest outdoor African market. Morocco has been known for its manufacture of exotic and refined objects, from leather goods, to rugs, potteries, jewelry and woodcrafts.
