| description |
Through successive royal speeches and
digital transformation strategies, Morocco has identified
the digital transformation of government, the economy, and
society as high priorities for the country’s new development
model and for strengthening the social contract between the
state and citizens. This case study examines the data
governance ecosystem in Morocco by applying a regional
assessment tool developed the World Bank’s Middle East and
North Africa (MENA) tech initiative. The case provides an
assessment of existing practices to optimize the management
and generation of data for development outcomes. Morocco has
the opportunity to achieve its strategic digital
transformation aspirations by reinforcing and effectively
implementing a robust technical infrastructure and policy,
legal, and regulatory framework for data governance to
enable trusted data collection, processing, and (re)use by
government, civil society, and the private sector. Enabling
effective implementation of this data governance framework
and better use by civil servants and individual users will
also require investment to build institutional capacity and
digital skills of all actors in the data ecosystem. Finally,
an inclusive communications and dissemination campaign to
increase public awareness and acceptance, can foster trust
in data use in a country and region with a fragile social contract. |
