Northern Cyprus graduates protest degree freeze

The North Cyprus University Graduates Coordinating Committee organized protests in Rabat against the decision to halt the equivalency of their university degrees, announced in 2023, which prevents recognition of their diplomas and threatens their professional futures. The protesters confirmed that this suspension is unjustified and stems from a sudden decision by the authorities, despite these universities previously being officially recognized and listed in the official gazette. Students and their families expressed their shock and psychological distress, with studies showing that some graduates have suffered from depression due to the uncertainty surrounding the status of their degrees. The protesters are calling for a comprehensive solution that ends forced unemployment and restores recognition of their diplomas, emphasizing their intent to continue escalating their protests until their demands are met. They also reaffirmed their patriotism and readiness to defend the unity of Morocco, demanding an open direct dialogue with officials to understand the reasons behind the decision and to address what they see as neglecting the concerns of graduates.
