RABAT - A historic agreement was formalized on Thursday between Morocco's Inter-Ministerial Delegation for Human Rights (DIDH) and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), marking a significant partnership aimed at bolstering Morocco's commitment to human rights protections.
The signing ceremony, presided over by Justice Minister Abdellatif Ouahbi, solidifies a collaborative effort between the two entities to devise an action plan for implementing recommendations from UN human rights entities. The jointly crafted plan will delineate the participation of relevant stakeholders, facilitating Morocco's progress towards fulfilling its international human rights obligations.

The agreement, signed by DIDH Secretary General Abdelkarim Boujradi and UNDP Resident Representative Edward A. Christow, also prioritizes enhancing Morocco's oversight of UN recommendations. This involves adopting a strategic outlook, refining reporting systems, and fortifying the capacity for drafting national human rights reports.

Meanwhile, Christow lauded Morocco's ongoing efforts and dedication to advancing human rights, stating that the agreement seeks to strengthen partnerships across various sectors in this crucial domain.
