The International Affairs Office, in collaboration with the School of Political Science at Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University (STOU), recently organized a special lecture titled “Regional Peace and Security: Spirit of the Green March.”

On Monday, 24 November 2025, the event took place at the Video Room, Library and Learning Resources Center, STOU. The university was honored to welcome H.E. Mr. Abderrahim Rahhaly, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Kingdom of Morocco
to Thailand, as the keynote speaker. The Ambassador shared insights on regional peace and security through the lens of the “Spirit of the Green March.” Associate Professor Dr. Thaweewat Wattanakulcharoen, University Council Member and Acting President of STOU, presided over the opening ceremony and delivered the welcoming remarks.
In addition, Professor Mohammed Larouz, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at Moulay Ismail University, Morocco, joined the session via an online platform. He presented academic perspectives on Morocco’s history, politics, and its international role, further strengthening the mutual understanding of regional security between the two nations.
The lecture concluded with an interactive Q&A session, providing a platform for academic exchange and vibrant discussion among participants.
This initiative reflects the strong cooperation between the three partner organizations: Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University, the Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco to Thailand, and Moulay Ismail University. It also serves as a vital platform for exchanging knowledge on politics, security, and international relations, benefiting university personnel, students, and the general public alike.
