Two decades of quotas for Moroccan women

Since the adoption of the "quota" system in 2002, the political representation of women in Morocco has experienced notable development. The number of women in parliament increased from two in 1993 to 35 in 2002, rising further to 90 seats (21%) in the 2021 elections. Although female candidacies are expected to reach 36% in 2026, women's participation in local lists remains low at 7.5%, and their representation in official institutions does not exceed 24.3%. Criticisms of the weak representation of women and the declining results of political empowerment continue, despite more than two decades passing since the implementation of the quota system. Most activist demands call for increasing the number of female seats and focusing on meaningful women's participation in decision-making processes, in line with the constitution, which stipulates gender equality.
