On May 17, 2026, Morocco officially launched the RTS 2026 campaign, an initiative aimed at fostering African fraternity through sports. The event, held in Rabat, brought together officials, athletes, and dignitaries from across the continent to celebrate unity and cooperation.
The campaign, whose full name is not specified in available sources, is part of Morocco's broader strategy to strengthen ties with African nations. Sports, particularly football and athletics, are central to the initiative, with planned tournaments and cultural exchanges scheduled throughout 2026.
Moroccan Minister of Youth and Sports, whose name was not confirmed in verifiable reports, emphasized the role of sports in bridging cultural divides. The launch included performances and speeches highlighting shared African heritage.
