In response to the growing demands of Gen Z, the Moroccan government has announced a new national strategy to combat corruption, stated the Minister Delegate for Digital Transition, Amal El Fallah Seghrouchni, during a parliamentary session. Morocco is ranked 99th by Transparency International, a position criticized for its severe economic repercussions.
In recent days, young Moroccans from Generation Z have taken to the streets in several cities, leading a new wave of protests that begin on social media and spill into the public sphere. This raises questions about the nature and defining traits of this generation.
After a weekend marked by Gen Z protests in several cities across Morocco, public figures have come forward in support of the young people's demands for better public education and healthcare services, as well as the fight against corruption. Many in the arts and football communities have voiced their opinions through their social media platforms.
