Milestone Achieved: Morocco’s Unified Social Registry Reaches 2.8 Million Families
Alalam24 In a memorandum accompanying the 2024 Finance Bill project, it was reported that as of September 27th, the Unified Social Registry in Morocco had recorded 2.8 million families, equivalent to approximately 9.7 million individuals
This memorandum, published on the Ministry of Economy and Finance’s website, highlights the efforts made to expand the reach of the National Population Register and the Unified Social Registry across all regions and provinces of the kingdom in 2023, with the aim of effectively targeting beneficiaries of various social protection programs
The source further elaborates that this expansion required the establishment of citizen service centers, the mobilization of necessary human resources, and the organization of awareness campaigns to educate families on the importance of registering in the Unified Social Registry. Additionally, various sectors were engaged in efforts to encourage beneficiaries of social programs to enroll in these registers. Notably, significant progress has been made in the registration of the population in both the National Population Register and the Unified Social Registry
As of September 27th, the number of people registered in the National Population Register reached 13.6 million
The document emphasizes that despite the progress achieved in activating these registries, the government remains committed to taking the necessary measures to expedite the registration of priority target groups in the Unified Social Registry, in order to benefit from the Direct Social Support Program
These measures primarily revolve around communicating with the public about the anticipated benefits of registering in the National Population Register and the Unified Social Registry, a crucial condition for applying for state social assistance. Individuals who have already registered are encouraged to ensure the registration of the remaining members of their families
The government also plans to continue its efforts in communicating through fieldwork and organizing mobile campaigns to motivate eligible individuals to register in both the National Population Register and the Unified Social Registry
