UAE news portal “Al Ain News” highlighted the initiatives taken by Morocco, under the leadership of King Mohammed VI, to build the social State.

During 2023, the Moroccan government approved, in accordance with Royal directives, decrees aimed at establishing the foundations of the social State, making this principle one of its most important priorities, the portal notes.

It underlines that in implementation of the Royal directives and within the framework of the law on social protection, the government has devised a direct aid program, adding that the kingdom aims to provide social protection to large segments of society to reduce economic and social risks.

The UAE portal notes that this financial support, from which families meeting the legal conditions benefit, is in the form of subsidies to support the purchasing power of citizens and protect them against old-age-related risks, adding that the government has established a direct housing aid program to enable citizens, in particular social groups with medium and limited incomes, to have decent housing.

Thus, people who plan to acquire a primary housing can now benefit from financial assistance of between 70,000 and 100,000 dirhams, the same source points out.

“Al Ain News” notes that the government aims, through this social program, to guarantee the right to decent housing and to fight exclusion and poverty, while improving the purchasing power of citizens, particularly low- and middle-income social groups.
