Visiting Morocco for the first time, Ivanka Trump received a warm welcome Thursday from housewives, widows and other women who are benefiting from new laws that allow them to own land.

Morocco is one such nation.

"When you invest in women, they invest back into their families and communities and countries flourish," Ivanka said. visiting Morocco to promote the Women's Global Development and Prosperity initiative, a U.S. government program she spearheads that has a goal of helping 50 million women in developing countries advance economically by 2025. The initiative focuses on helping women develop job skills and succeed as entrepreneurs, along with changing cultures and laws.

Morocco is changing its land ownership laws and "we are here to support and encourage the full implementation of that," she said. The women she met among rows of trees bearing black olives thanked her. Aicha Bourkib, 59, hugged Ivanka Trump, clasped her hands and kissed them. The housewife and mother of four grows olive trees and vegetables on land she recently bought. She has two cows and wants to create a dairy cooperative in her village. Bourkib and the other women told her visitor through a translator that owning land "helps us and all the families in the area."
