https://blogs.worldbank.org/en/arabvoices/morocco-s-whole-of-government-approach-to-climate-policy-in-acti After facing a series of climate shocks and droughts in 2018-2023 and multiple policy dialogues with international partners, Morocco has placed climate change high on its policy agenda. Cash crop exports, hydropower generation, and drinking water availability significantly affected economic growth and domestic revenues, so the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) prioritized adopting a strong “whole-of-government” approach to climate policy, supported by the World Bank Group through a Climate Project-for-Results, and Technical Assistance (TA) financed by the Climate Support Facility. Morocco climbed to the 6th position in the 2026 Climate Performance Index, besides Denmark, UK, Chile and far from peers. It also adopted the new Green Generation Strategy to unleash the potential of job creation all along the agricultural value chains. © 2026 The World Bank Group,
