Rabat – The Ministry of Justice, the National Council for Human Rights (CNDH), and the Danish Institute for Human Rights (DIHR) signed a memorandum of understanding on Friday, establishing a new framework for institutional cooperation aimed at strengthening human rights protections in Morocco.
The agreement focuses on developing the capacities of legal professionals and justice sector personnel, particularly in ensuring access to justice and integrating human rights principles into public policies.
This initiative aligns with Morocco’s constitutional commitments and international conventions the country has ratified.
The collaboration is designed to bolster training programs that promote a deeper understanding of human rights within the justice system, with an emphasis on enhancing practical skills and expertise.
This initiative is also seen as part of Morocco’s broader effort to engage with partners across Africa, building stronger regional ties through human rights advocacy.
The memorandum sets forth shared objectives between the Ministry of Justice and CNDH, supported by the financial resources and technological expertise provided by the Danish-Arab Partnership Programme (DAPP).
These resources are expected to accelerate the implementation of the agreement’s goals, which include professional development and improved legislative practices.
The CNDH will take a lead role in monitoring the effectiveness of the programs developed under this partnership, ensuring they meet the needs of the justice professionals involved. The initiative is also set to reinforce Morocco’s position in promoting human rights at the national and international levels.
The participation of the Danish Institute for Human Rights reinforces the international dimension of the agreement, by supporting the alignment of Morocco’s legislative efforts with global human rights standards.
