Action Plan 2

  • Number of Commitments: 22
  • Policy Area Focus: Not specified

Morocco’s highly inclusive co-creation process resulted in an action plan of modest ambition with a focus on strengthening transparency. Looking ahead, commitment implementers should collaborate with civil society to consider how milestones can build towards ambitious reforms that strengthen public accountability and civic participation in future action plans.

Morocco’s second OGP national action plan covers 22 commitments divided into five thematic groups: transparency and quality of public services; equality and inclusivity; open justice; citizen participation; and open local communities. Multiple commitments are carried forward from Morocco’s first action plan in the areas of access to information, transparency and quality of public services, budget transparency, integrity and anti-corruption, public funding of civil society, and citizen participation. The action plan introduces new policy areas such as gender equality, inclusion of children and people with disabilities, open justice, healthcare and education, public consultations, and open local communities. The action plan aligns with Morocco’s New Development Model (NDM) which emphasizes improving public services, gender equality, administrative reform, and justice in view of economic and societal development. This report uses the commitment numbers as provided in the English version of the action plan. (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.

OGP Global Report Data

The data below is drawn from the 2019 OGP Global Report. You can view and learn more about the report here.

Selected Dimensions of Open Government

This section captures how each OGP member can play a leadership role, based on IRM-based findings and third-party scores. This list does not cover all of open government and OGP members are not required to take any action.

Action implications

These are recommendations on the role that each OGP member might play in each policy area. The recommendations are derived from a combination of the IRM-based findings and third-party scores.

IRM-based findings

Reflect the performance of commitments in a particular policy area, as assessed by the IRM.

 

(NC) No Commitments
(CA) Commitment(s) in the policy area.
(IR) IRM-Reviewed: At least one IRM-assessed commitment.
(C) Was Complete: At least one commitment was substantially or fully completed.
(A) Was Ambitious: At least one commitment with moderate or transformative potential impact.
(ER) Showed Early Results: At least one commitment opened government in a “Major” or “Outstanding” way.

Third-party scores

Reflect “real-world” performance, i.e., performance outside of the OGP framework. Scores are comprised of various indicators collected by respected organizations.
