Casting female candidate faces rights criticism
The Moroccan Party’s initiative to organize a special procedure for selecting the female candidate for the regional list has sparked human rights and women’s rights criticisms. Critics argue that adopting discriminatory criteria between women and men could threaten the principle of equality and equal opportunities in political participation. Associations emphasized that the selection of female candidates should be based on objective and transparent standards, including competence and experience, without gender-based discrimination. They called for early announcement of the names to give all candidates, both men and women, sufficient time to prepare. The organizations affirmed that they will not accept any discriminatory procedures that put women on an exceptional path to prove their competence. They stressed that promoting women’s participation should be achieved through equal opportunities and standards, with the aim of moving from exceptional measures to full equality in candidacy and selection.
