Strategic Significance and Regional Impact
“These major national projects were also based on a solid institutional architecture of human rights” , stressed Bourita, adding that this was further consolidated through the 2011 Constitution, “a true national charter of Human Rights”.
In the same context, the minister affirmed that the Kingdom “spares no effort to maintain a policy of positive and proactive interaction with international Human Rights mechanisms” , through constant, transparent, and systematic communication with the bodies in charge.
Bourita also shed light on the crucial role of the Interministerial Delegation for Human Rights (DIDH), which in 13 years, has been able to develop a harmonious approach that makes it possible to establish dynamic interaction between Morocco and the United Nations (UN) human rights bodies.
