Governance

BBAM is a non-profit association registered in Morocco and run by elected volunteers. Everything about how we are governed, and how we use members’ money, is published here.

Constitution

Our amended constitution (January 2022) sets out our aims, membership rules and how officers are elected, under Moroccan association law (Dahir of 15 November 1958).

How we use membership fees

  • 30% is seed money for our charitable work. See the charities we support.
  • 70% pays for social and cultural activities and the website.
  • No member or officer can profit financially from fees or other money paid to the association.

Who can stand for election

Any member can stand. For legal reasons, officers must be resident in Morocco with a valid Carte de Séjour.

Partners and affiliations

BBAM is loosely affiliated with the British Moroccan Society. Our members are welcome at each other’s events, and we cooperate on some activities.
