The workshop was organized by the Central Propaganda Department in coordination with the Vietnamese Embassy in Morocco and the Office of the High Commissioner for Former Resistance War Veterans and Former Members of the Moroccan Liberation Army, within the framework of the visit and work in Morocco of the delegation of the Communist Party of Vietnam , led by Comrade Nguyen Trong Nghia, Politburo member, Secretary of the Party Central Committee, Head of the Central Propaganda Department. The workshop attracted the participation of many scholars and researchers on Vietnam in Morocco, along with many international friends and representatives of the Vietnamese community in Morocco.

In his speech on the topic "President Ho Chi Minh and the history of Vietnam's relations with African countries, especially Morocco", Professor Abdallah Saaf, Director of the Moroccan Center for Social Science Research, emphasized: President Ho Chi Minh is a symbol of the struggle of small nations against colonialism and imperialism.

Professor Saaf affirmed that President Ho Chi Minh realized that only the strength of national unity combined with international solidarity could create the necessary aggregate strength for the success of the Vietnamese revolution. The struggle of the Vietnamese people under the leadership of President Ho Chi Minh contributed greatly to the national liberation movements in the 20th century in many countries. In addition to providing political support and demonstrating solidarity in the struggles for self-determination and national independence around the world, Vietnam also supported many liberation forces in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America by sharing experiences and training leaders.
