HRH Princess Lalla Hasna of Morocco, a daughter of the late King Hassan II and sister of HM King Mohammed VI, was born on November 19, 1967. Her mother is Lalla Latifa Hammou , a Berber woman of the Zaiane tribe.
Since her childhood, Princess Hasna has been interested in social and cultural activities, with special emphasis to environmental issues in Morocco. In 1999 she launched the national campaign for the protection of the environment and gave the prize for the most beautiful and cleanest beach in Morocco.
To shore up her work, the Mohammed VI Foundation for the protection of the environment was created in 2001 and chaired by Princess Hasna. She presides over the governing board of the foundation and regularly pays on the terrain visits to sensitize the population about environmental issues.
In 2002, Princess Hasna set up the prize of young reporters for the environment and in 2003 a prize for photography annually awarded on the international environment day.
