Morocco has been ranked 130th globally out of 165 countries in the Human Freedom Index 2024, and ninth in the North Africa and Middle East region.
Morocco ranked 66th globally in the 2024 Global Innovation Index, performing notably well in creativity and exceeding expectations for lower-middle-income countries. The report also highlighted Morocco's rapid rise in the rankings over the past decade and its inclusion among Africa's top scientific clusters, though challenges remain in business development and patenting.
Freedom House's annual World Freedom report places Morocco in the category of «partly free» countries, ranking it sixth in the Arab world with a score of 37 out of 100 points.
According to the latest edition of the Economic Freedom Index, the Moroccan economy remains the freest in North Africa, although the Kingdom has lost six places in the ranking compared to last year.
The economic and financial hub of the biggest city in the Kingdom maintains its first place in Africa, as the government adopted last week a decree-law reorganizing Casablanca Finance City (CFC).
While children's rights are «seriously affected» by the global health crisis, Morocco has gained three places in the KidsRights Index compiled by the international organization KidsRights Foundation. The kingdom ranks 3rd in the Maghreb, 6th in Africa and is among the Top10 of the MENA region.
