Current Action Plan
2024-2027
Action Plan 3
- Number of Commitments: 12
- Policy Area Focus: Not specified
Morocco’s second action plan achieved modest early results. Notably, digitalization of justice processes and administrative procedures increased transparency and access to key government services. Noteworthy progress was also made to increase access to information across local governments. However, open parliament commitments saw limited progress due the one-year implementation timeline. Reformers continue important work to strengthen inclusivity and collaboration in OGP processes. (More)

OGP at Ten: Toward Democratic Renewal
When eight governments and nine civil society leaders launched OGP in 2011, no one expected it to reach its current size and scope. Over the last ten years, however, OGP has grown in ways that have exceeded expectations.
