Over 6.5 million Moroccans face mental health issues
Moroccan Minister of Health and Social Protection, Amin Tihraoui, launched the Mental Health 2030 Plan with a budget approaching four billion dirhams, aiming to reduce the treatment gap that deprives 85% of those with mental health disorders of access to care. The plan seeks to serve about 6.5 million Moroccans suffering from mental health conditions, including one million children and young people, by increasing capacity, expanding hospitals and healthcare facilities, and enhancing human resources through the recruitment of more psychiatrists and mental health professionals. It also aims to develop an independent legal framework for the profession. This plan is part of a comprehensive reform of the national healthcare system, with a focus on making mental health a fundamental component of primary healthcare services by 2030.
