On April 9, 2026, King Mohammed VI of Morocco chaired a ceremony at the Royal Palace in Rabat to launch a new generation of territorial development programs. The programs are designed to accelerate the economic and social development of the kingdom's regions, focusing on improving infrastructure, public services, and local governance.
The launch event was attended by senior government officials, including Head of Government Aziz Akhannouch. The new programs follow the earlier phase of the Advanced Regionalization project, which began over a decade ago, and aim to deepen decentralization efforts.
According to official statements, the initiatives will involve significant public investment targeting all of Morocco's 12 regions. The plans are framed as part of a broader national strategy to reduce territorial disparities and promote balanced development across the country.
