Description

Setting up an electronic platform for “citizen participation”
August 2018 – August 2019
Lead implementing agency/actor
Delegated Ministry to the Head of Government, Responsible for Relations with Parliament and Civil Society
Commitment description
What is the public problem that the commitment will address?
The legal framework for citizen participation was created for petitions and motions. It is now being developed for public consultations. An electronic platform is in the process of being set up to this end, to render the provisions of this legal framework operational, and to help citizens exercise their new right related to citizen participation.
What is the commitment
The commitment consists of setting up a “citizen participation” electronic
platform that covers the three processes: petitions, motions, and public consultations, as well as all training, technical support, and maintenance services. Citizens would be able to submit petitions via the online portal to the parliament, to the government or to local governments following the legal procedures. Citizens can also use the portal to submit legislative motions to the parliament. Additionally, public authorities can use the site to launch a public consultation about questions, decisions or policies.
How will the commitment contribute to solve the public problem?
The commitment will have the following goals: ▪ Help citizens exercise their new rights tied to citizen participation (presentation of petitions to public authorities, legislative motions, and public consultations); ▪ Expand the exercise of this right across all of Morocco.
Why is this commitment relevant to OGP values?
This project is a measure that renders citizen participation operational.
