David Khayat, president of the National Institute of Cancer in France, praised the Princess for her hard work against the disease.
Khayat said Lalla Salma has “unwavering commitment” to making the Moroccan people “show stronger solidarity in the battle for life.” He also commented on her putting “Morocco in a high level in the fight against cancer” and “to facilitate “the poor’s access to treatment and medicine to allow them an opportunity to recover.”
Lalla Salma was then given the 2010 award of the Charter of Paris against Cancer.
The Charter of Paris was founded in 2000 by former French President Jacques Chirac. It aims to bring together world and medical leaders together for the fight against cancer.
