Morocco Parties Woo Youth Ahead of Election

Morocco’s parties are courting young voters ahead of the September 23 election with promises of jobs, affordable housing, and large-scale infrastructure investments tied to the 2030 World Cup, as persistent youth unemployment and disillusionment persist despite economic gains. Analysts note Ceuta’s mass migration as a form of social protest reflecting political frustration, while campaigns stress employment and housing as antidotes, even as youth voter participation remains relatively low and turnout concerns linger.
