On June 14, 2026, Nizar Baraka, Secretary General of the Istiqlal Party, unveiled a five-point political and social contract during the party's National Council meeting, ahead of Morocco's 2026 legislative elections. The plan focuses on combating rent-seeking and conflicts of interest, as reported by multiple Moroccan media outlets.
Baraka emphasized the need for transparency and accountability in public administration, proposing measures to limit the influence of special interests. The contract also includes commitments to social justice, economic reform, and strengthening democratic institutions.
The announcement comes as Morocco prepares for elections expected later in 2026. Istiqlal, a historic party in Morocco, aims to position itself as a reformist force. No specific dates for the elections have been confirmed by the government as of this report.
