Washington - US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will travel to Morocco next month to attend a conference about improving life in North Africa and the Middle East.

State Department spokesman Ian Kelly confirmed Clinton's participation in the November 2-3 Forum for the Future gathering that includes countries in the region as well as members of the Group of Eight industrialized countries.

'It's a unique partnership between governments of the region, the G8, civil society representatives and private sector leaders to discuss and exchange ideas on how best to work together to support progress and expand opportunities for the people of the region,' Kelly said.
