Moroccan Government Prepares New Administrative Division Reducing Regions from 12 to 9

According to informed sources, experts from the Ministry of Interior are currently drafting a new administrative division for Morocco, proposing a reduction in the number of regions from 12 to 9. This initiative aims to enhance administrative efficiency and foster greater integration among regions.

The primary objective of this administrative reform is to ensure equitable and effective resource distribution, reduce economic and social disparities between regions, and improve territorial governance in alignment with current challenges and sustainable development goals.

Sources indicate that the new draft relies on carefully considered geographical, economic, and demographic criteria to determine the optimal division. This reform is expected to promote better regional coordination and stronger alignment with national megaprojects, including preparations for hosting the 2030 World Cup.

As the official announcement of this draft is awaited, observers and stakeholders in local affairs are eager to see the potential transformative changes to Morocco’s administrative and developmental landscape.
