At the 40th Session of UNIDO’s Programme and Budget Committee in Vienna, Morocco’s Ambassador Azzeddine Farhane emphasized the Kingdom’s support for UNIDO’s mission and initiatives. This aligns with Morocco’s own dedication to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through sustainable industrial growth.
Ambassador Farhane highlighted the significance of UNIDO’s Africa Strategy, adopted in December 2023. This framework provides a crucial platform for coordinated industrial development across the continent. He also underscored the essential role UNIDO’s programs play in achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
Morocco, under King Mohammed VI’s leadership, prioritizes equitable and sustainable industrial growth in Africa. The nation actively promotes South-South and triangular cooperation as a means to address continental development needs.
UNIDO’s projects in Morocco directly align with the country’s national objectives, with a focus on promoting sustainable consumption and a circular economy. Additionally, Morocco remains committed to efforts for fair globalization and has invested in climate mitigation and adaptation strategies.
UNIDO’s support is essential for Morocco’s success in achieving its industrial decarbonization goals, including those outlined in its 2050 Long-Term Low-Carbon Strategy and 2030 National Climate Plan.
By working collaboratively with UNIDO, Morocco positions itself as a leader in sustainable industrial development within Africa. This partnership fosters a future where economic growth and environmental responsibility go hand-in-hand.
