The Academy of the Kingdom of Morocco (in Arabic : أكاديمية المملكة المغربية; in amazigh : ⵜⴰⴳⴰⴷⵉⵎⵉⵢⵜ ⵏ ⵜⴳⵍⴷⵉⵜ ⵏ ⵍⵎⵖⵔⵉⴱ) is a scholarly national academy based in Rabat. It was founded on 8 October 1977 by the king Hassan II with the objective of contributing to the development and promotion of scientific research, particularly in the fields of humanities, culture and arts. The site of the academy, located along Avenue Mohammed VI, south of Rabat, is adjoining that of the other Moroccan academic institution: the Hassan II Academy of Sciences and Technologies, specialized in exact, natural and technical sciences.
