is interrupted in Marrakech, Morocco on June 28, 2016.
The aim of Michelle’s trip is to tackle
the exclusion of girls in education worldwide. “We will emerge together
as a group of women to tackle this exclusion,” Michelle said during a
talk on the Let Girls Learn Initiative.
On Monday, they visited a leadership camp for girls in Liberia, urging the teens to keep fighting to stay in school.
“I’m just so thrilled to be here with you. I’m here to shine a big bright light on you,” Michelle told the girls.
The First Lady also visited the Moroccan city of Marrakech, where she met with King Mohammed VI‘s wife Princess Lalla Selma.
