PAM's Comprehensive Electoral Strategy for 2026
The Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM), a key player in the outgoing government, has unveiled an ambitious electoral program in Rabat aimed at addressing pressing socio-economic issues ahead of the legislative elections scheduled for September 23, 2026. The program, which encompasses 20 commitments organized into five major pillars, is set to require a substantial budget of 350 billion dirhams. This comprehensive initiative was presented during a well-attended event at a prominent hotel, where party leaders elaborated on their vision for inclusive growth, youth employment, civic engagement, purchasing power, and the reduction of territorial disparities.
Funding and Key Initiatives
PAM’s program is primarily funded through a projected inclusive economic growth of approximately 5%, the recovery of unpaid taxes estimated at 300 billion dirhams, and contributions of 40 billion dirhams from regional sources, with additional financing anticipated from various other channels. The party, known colloquially as the "Tractor Party," detailed its plans for nearly four hours, emphasizing the creation of one million jobs across diverse sectors, an increase in direct social aid from 500 dirhams to 1,000 dirhams for nearly four million beneficiaries, and a commitment to raise public sector pension payments to a minimum of 3,000 dirhams.
The political event was marked by a strong emphasis on youth engagement, with leaders expressing a desire for a government that prioritizes young individuals and is prepared to host the 2030 World Cup alongside Spain and Portugal. PAM’s commitment to educational and healthcare reforms is also pivotal, with the party vowing that public services will be at the forefront of its agenda. Furthermore, the party aims to establish a national charter between the state and youth, focusing on essential areas such as education, housing, and health services, alongside a promise of 100% healthcare coverage nationwide.
As the PAM gears up for the upcoming elections, they have expressed confidence in their ability to secure victory, highlighting their unique propositions designed to distinguish them within the current government coalition. With their 20 commitments and a bold financial plan, PAM is positioning itself as a transformative force capable of leading Morocco towards a more equitable and prosperous future.
