Opportunities for youth are at the center of the CPF.The CPF responds to Morocco’s ambition to successfully navigate this crucial point in its history. To achieve its objective of contributing to social cohesion and reducing social and territorial disparities, this CPF pursues three strategic focus areas: (A) Promoting Job Creation by the Private Sector; (B) Strengthening Human Capital; and (C) Promoting Inclusive and Resilient Territorial Development.

The first three years of the program have been defined jointly with the Government. The program supports the shift to a new development model, based on a scenario of deep and sustained structural reforms to increase productivity gains with special attention to innovation, market contestability and unleashing private sector potential.Under this scenario, Morocco would be able to maintain a relatively high rate of economic growth and economic convergence with more developed countries while preserving macroeconomic stability. The other two possible scenarios: voluntary growth-oriented policies without productivity-enhancing reforms or the pursuit of current macroeconomic and structural policies would respectively lead to large macroeconomic imbalances or a disappointing growth performance. 2019-02-25T16:18:14Z 2019-02-25T16:18:14Z 2019-01-18 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/101781550869524206/Morocco-Country-Partnership-Framework-for-the-Period-of-FY19-FY24 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/31318 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Country Partnership Framework Middle East and North Africa Morocco
