Morocco's Commitment to Digital Transformation
As part of its ambitious digital strategy aimed at 2030, Morocco is actively modernizing its public administration to enhance governance and citizen services. The country has recently entered into a series of partnerships within the digital sector, marking a significant step toward the modernization of public services and the improvement of the relationship between the administration and its citizens.
On May 5, during the African Open Government Conference held in Rabat, the Moroccan Minister of Digital Transition and Administrative Reform signed three partnership agreements aimed at accelerating the digitization of public services. These agreements are designed to enhance transparency and improve the overall quality of governance in the country.
Key Partnerships and Initiatives
The first partnership was established with the Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ICESCO), focusing on several key areas related to digital transformation. This includes artificial intelligence (AI), training, expert exchange, and the development of innovative technological projects within public administration. Additionally, the partnership aims to promote open data and strengthen cooperation in digitizing cultural and scientific heritage.
The second agreement was signed with the Mediator Institution of the Kingdom, with the goal of modernizing the reception of users in public services. Moroccan authorities are keen to enhance the quality of administrative services and rebuild citizen trust through new digital tools and pilot experiences that will be gradually implemented across the country.
The third partnership involves the National Authority for Integrity, Prevention and Fight Against Corruption. This agreement focuses on modernizing the institution's information systems and developing digital tools to enhance transparency and improve the detection of corruption risks. The emphasis here is on utilizing AI and data analysis to support the digitalization of public governance.
These partnerships reflect a broader context of increasing investments aimed at transforming public administration digitally. Morocco is particularly focused on dematerializing procedures, interconnecting public platforms, and progressively integrating emerging technologies to enhance the efficiency of administrative services. This strategy is supported by a notable increase in digital usage within the country. According to the National Telecommunications Regulatory Agency (ANRT), internet penetration reached an impressive 112.59% by the end of 2025, largely due to the rise in mobile and fixed subscriptions.
