"Priority to meritocracy; because we have deprived ourselves of many talents who, not being the "sons of", have expatriated elsewhere! And unlike certain politicians who invade TV sets or whose specialty is to distribute good positions and power, we go to the field and give real follow-up to our proposals, attentive to observe, listen and respond to the suffering and deficiencies that persist. In some isolated places, the spectacle is only desolation: dismal roads, unsanitary housing, more than 50 students per class, non-existent transport and security."

"On the contrary, I received support from all sides, and especially in relation to my action and my desire to make things happen. Running again for these elections was essential for me, because I did not want not to disappoint the 30,000 voters who voted for me in 2007."

"My participation is civic and completely independent of my faith. If I sought to be elected democratically, it was first and foremost to escape the opprobrium of those I rub shoulders with every day: all the forgotten and oppressed people of Morocco from below. Too bad for my detractors who confuse my political convictions as a committed woman with my community identity."

"One of the special features of this reform, linked to the Moroccan context, lies in the fact that it was demanded from two directions: the purposes of Charia and through ratified international conventions. It is, therefore, the result of negotiation that is translated into its limitations, including the maintenance of polygamy or the discriminatory aspect of inheritance. Nevertheless, the code’s advances have been unanimously considered as of the highest importance because of the impact they can have in the short and long term."

"The Vienna Declaration, adopted by the 1993 World Conference on Human Rights (paragraphs 78 to 82), put the issue back on the international agenda, considering that "education, training and information in this field are indispensable for the establishment and promotion of stable and harmonious inter-community relations, as well as for the promotion of mutual understanding, tolerance and peace", inviting "all States and institutions to include human rights, humanitarian law, democracy and the rule of law in the curricula of all educational institutions, both formal and otherwise" and recommending that they establish "programmes and strategies" for "specific groups such as the armed forces, law enforcement officials, police personnel and health professionals"."

"As previously indicated, several initiatives have been carried out at the national and international levels at the initiative of governments and civil society, but these initiatives are not part of a general framework that gives them the necessary strength to create an impact and new dynamics. Hence the need to draw the attention of the international community to the strategic and structuring nature of human rights education."

"Also, it can be said that the main objective has a clear political dimension, coupled with an educational dimension that emphasizes the need to provide a “working tool” within everyone’s reach. In addition to the benchmarks, this working tool includes principles, definitions, clear provisions and well-defined responsibilities in terms of implementation. In principle, these consensuses are likely to encourage the various parties to move forward with this project, by implementing it while taking into account their contexts and the accumulations in the matter and by mutually benefiting from each other's experiences, and by carrying out mid-term evaluations in order to draw the necessary lessons."

"To return to the question of context, it can be said that there is an awareness among certain States, reiterated by certain institutions and non-governmental organizations, of the importance of human rights education, and what it requires in terms of the development of values, orientations and behaviors capable of protecting and promoting human rights."

"Just as with the Moroccan Sahara, the Palestinian issue suffers from Western biases and exploitation for political gains."

"Our historical ties with Europe have been unjust, and now it’s time for Morocco to build relationships that reflect fairness and mutual respect."

"The BRICS group represents a serious opportunity for Morocco to balance its economic position and move beyond Western dominance."

"We don't even need a quota. That's another area where we don't need to imitate the West."

"This alliance should develop a new constitution, which no longer serves the autocracy."

"We have nothing to do with the violent fundamentalist Islamist cells, but we understand their motivations."

"Attempts are constantly made to integrate me into the system. Sometimes I am intimidated and sometimes lured. But as long as there are no overarching changes in this country, I cannot be a part of the political game."

"Many in the West believe Arab societies must automatically be despotic, but that is not true."

"The king has passed a law for women who go to high school, but not for average people in the countryside."

"A Muslim model of government in accordance with our ideas is very much an example of grassroots democracy."

"it's right for women to have more liberties."

"Our religion is much more capable of solving social problems than Western models that only benefit the elite."

"you solve the social problems, you also help women. Women have no problem with Islam. They have a problem with power."

"But the men, these little machos, have robbed us of that. It's their fault that the whole world believes the opposite."

"if all that matters are the rights of women -- you can call me a feminist if you like."

"The history of the women's movement in the West has unfolded completely differently from here."

"The most important project I have undertaken is the complete overhaul of the administration. The first challenge, at this stage, is to reconsider the task of the municipality and the perception of the citizen."

"There is a tremendous momentum for tourism investments in Morocco, with many investment opportunities to seize across the entire value chain."

"This innovative approach ensures that every region of Morocco shines with its unique potential, offering unforgettable Moroccan experiences year-round."

"All these marketing initiatives revolve around our key brand values: authenticity and modernity."

"Tourism is a significant contributor to the Moroccan economy, playing a key role in the country’s development."

"Climate change is one of the most dangerous crises mankind has experienced in this century, impacting our lives"

"Every time I come to the COP, I feel like we’re negotiating for who’s going to die and who’s going to live"

"The links between climate, human rights and sustainable development are definitively established"

"We call on our members to move from reflection to construction and to urge their government, their territorial communities, their industries to take responsibility for the development of resilient and sustainable public policies"

"We are embarking on a new EIA (ère)??, a new industrial revolution"

"it is to us, through the awareness of the citizens, the assistance of our governments, parliamentarians, our elected officials and our civil society that we will succeed in changing climate change"

"In a semi-arid country such as Morocco, we have a strong awareness of water usage. With 1800 ml of rainwater per year in the north against 200 ml in the south, we need a water transfer policy along with a water-saving policy. There will be a shortage of 5bn cu metres by 2020. To counter this, the government has launched the construction of seven desalination centres to increase resources."

"By implementing eco-taxes and eco-contributions, our objective is to encourage long-term changes in consumption habits. The regulatory framework is clear: para-fiscal taxes help safeguard investments, strengthen the entire value chain, stimulate economic growth, and generate employment. These measures apply to specific products, such as batteries (Dh150, €13.75) and tyres (Dh6, €0.55), with the collected revenues reinvested within the sector. Additionally, significant progress has been made regarding plastic pollution — the production and sale of plastic bags will be banned starting July 2016."

"I think it is very important for all of us to recognize that the non-State actors are already moving and there are many [actions], initiatives and coalitions and they are very active."

"I think as Africans we need to have the same voice. We need to work together to make Africa shine."

"We believe that Africans can build Africa"
