On August 21, 2026, Morocco announced a new initiative aimed at mobilizing young Moroccans living abroad (MRE) to contribute to national development. The program, titled "MRE: Young People at the Service of the Motherland," seeks to strengthen ties between the diaspora and their country of origin.
According to official sources, the initiative will focus on skills transfer, investment facilitation, and cultural engagement. It will offer young MREs opportunities to participate in development projects in sectors such as technology, education, and renewable energy.
The Moroccan government has emphasized the importance of the diaspora, which numbers over five million people, as a key asset for the country's growth. The program will include mentorship, networking events, and streamlined administrative procedures for those wishing to invest or volunteer in Morocco.
This initiative aligns with Morocco's broader strategy to harness the potential of its global community, particularly the youth, to drive innovation and economic progress. Further details on implementation and eligibility are expected to be released in the coming months.
