Culture of Morocco
1- Family
1- Family
The family is one of the most important elements of everyday life in
Morocco. Community beliefs are highly integral in Moroccan society
and lead to the idea that the family is sacred and they should work as a
group to accomplish goals. More than often, the family units ideals are
held to a higher standard than what the individual desires.
Families are usually numerous and those working support expenses and
family care. Moroccans attach great importance to solidarity between
members of the same family and even neighbors

High context
Polychronic time
In Polychronic cultures, human interaction is valued over time
and material things, leading to a lesser concern for 'getting
things done' -- they do get things done, but more in their own
time.
Aboriginal and Native Americans have typical polychronic
cultures, where 'talking stick' meetings can go on for as long as
somebody has something to say.
Polychronic people tend also to be high context.
