Reform of public governance in Morocco (HAKAMA)
The Advisory Mission for the Reform of Public Governance in Morocco is an initiative designed to enhance the countrys public governance through the expertise aimed at improving public administration. The main goal is to assist Moroccan officials, especially those working for the Ministry of Public Administration Reform and Civil Service, in implementing reforms to modernize the public sector. This project focuses on several key areas:
- Improving Public Services and Administration-User Relations: Efforts include legal reforms, the development of electronic administration, and enhancements in administrative services to improve the interaction between the public sector and its users, thereby raising the quality of public services.
- Enhancing Public Governance and Transparency: This involves putting into practice an anti-corruption strategy, establishing regulations to prevent conflicts of interest, and setting up a system for heritage declaration to foster a more transparent and accountable administration.
- Valuing Human Capital: The project supports initiatives to modernize human resources management in public administration. This includes promoting merit-based services, introducing a competency-based employment system, professionalizing and valuing human resources, and improving skills and workforce management.
- Strengthening the Ministrys Management Capacity: A special focus is on enhancing the administrative, financial, and accounting management capabilities of the Ministry itself. This includes a comprehensive analysis of the ministrys structure, the development of various management manuals and procedures, and the implementation of training programs for staff.
Overall, the mission seeks not just to reform and improve individual components of Moroccos public administration but also to make holistic changes that valorize human capital, ensure transparency, and enhance service quality, thereby strengthening governance across the board.
