Rabat — Morocco’s Ministry of National Territory Planning, Urban Planning, Housing and City Policy has launched a special campaign for Moroccans living abroad as part of the “Marhaba 2025” operation.
To implement the initiative, the ministry specified that it launched a mobile outreach caravan on August 2 in Tangier.
Held under the theme “Urban Planning and Housing at the Service of Moroccans Worldwide,” the caravan is scheduled to land in 10 cities across Morocco’s regions until August 31.
Royal directives drive initiative
The ministry noted that rolling out this national campaign program for 2025 is in line with King Mohammed VI’s directives and his special care for Moroccan diaspora members.
The campaign follows circular number 7049 that Minister Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri sent to Al Omran Group, urban agencies, and regional and provincial directorates under the ministry.
The directive calls for active participation in bringing services closer to citizens and strengthening trust and communication for Moroccans living abroad.
Strategic vision centers citizens
Ministry officials pointed out that this initiative reflects a strategic vision that places citizens — both inside and outside the country — at the heart of the ministry’s focus.
The initiative is designed to provide field support and information that allows diaspora members to learn about the missions of the ministry and its programs aimed at providing decent housing, particularly the Direct Housing Support Program.
Practical measures improve services
The campaign includes several practical measures to improve reception quality and deliver effective public service.
Not only did the ministry create reception and guidance spaces at all central and decentralized services and institutions under its authority, but it has also dedicated special windows inside commercial agencies of Al Omran companies and set up reception units at urban agencies and border crossings.
Additionally, the ministry is set to organize open days to share insights on its programs, missions, and services, as well as providing detailed explanations about real estate offers related to housing or investment.
Digital access and simplified procedures
The ministry is adopting a digital aspect as part of its campaign, in order to facilitate diaspora members’ access to urban planning data through digital platforms and direct communication.
It also simplifies procedures and ensures special support for investment or housing files concerning this category of citizens.
