Morocco's Economic, Social and Environmental Council (CESE) has initiated discussions on the development of rural douars (villages) and measures to combat environmental degradation. The council, an advisory body, is focusing on sustainable development in rural areas, which face challenges such as lack of infrastructure and environmental pressures.
The CESE's work includes proposing policies to improve living conditions in douars while protecting natural resources. Key areas of focus include water management, waste treatment, and promoting eco-friendly economic activities. The council aims to balance rural development with environmental conservation.
As of July 2026, the CESE has not yet released a formal report, but the discussions are part of ongoing efforts to address rural-urban disparities and environmental sustainability in Morocco. The council's recommendations are expected to inform government policy.
