Morocco lost one spot in the Global Innovation index. In this ranking published annually by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), it is now 75th out of 131 countries.
While acknowledging that the Kingdom has «considerably improved» its score thanks to «better protection of biodiversity and habitats», the Environmental Performance Index for 2020 ranks Morocco 100th out of 180 countries. It is also 10th in the MENA region and 3rd in the Maghreb.
Morocco is ranked 56th in the Global Firepower military strength index for 2020. Ranked third in North Africa and seventh in the Arab World, the Kingdom had improved its rating in the annual report.
By improving its score, going from 4.99 to 5.10 points out of 10, Morocco has managed to better its ranking in The Economist Intelligence Unit’s Democracy ranking, released Wednesday.
