Forum reviews paid women endorsements
The report from the Zahraa Forum for Moroccan Women analyzed the results of the recent legislative elections, with a focus on women's participation. It highlighted issues related to the conditions for obtaining party endorsements, noting that some parties requested monetary payments in exchange for candidacy. This practice undermines the goal of increasing female representation through regional lists and makes it dependent on financial ability rather than competence. The data also revealed a weak level of women's participation in local districts, with only 15.89% of them running as candidates and women holding the head of lists at a rate of just 7.49%. The report emphasized that some candidacies are based on family connections and traits of political inheritance, reflecting the ongoing marginalization of women and hindering the achievement of parity and equal opportunities.
