In Morocco, a wave of youth-led protests has emerged, challenging the government’s priorities and demanding urgent social reforms. Despite the impending Africa Cup of Nations in December, demonstrators have called for a boycott of soccer matches at newly constructed stadiums, symbolizing their discontent with the allocation of resources. On Saturday, hundreds of young protesters took to the streets in cities like Casablanca and Tangier, reigniting their demands for the release of arrested activists and the ouster of Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch, whom they accuse of corruption. The protests, organized by the grassroots movement Gen Z 212, focus on systemic issues such as inadequate healthcare, education disparities, and government accountability. The movement, which boasts over 200,000 followers on platforms like Discord, has gained momentum following a recent eight-day pause. Protesters chanted slogans like ‘Stadiums are here, but where are the hospitals?’ and criticized the government for prioritizing sports infrastructure over essential public services. Education remains a central issue, with demonstrators highlighting the growing divide between public and private schools. Government audits reveal persistent challenges, including teacher shortages and regional disparities, particularly in rural areas. While officials have pledged to reallocate funds to healthcare and education, tangible improvements remain elusive. The protests, inspired by similar movements in Nepal, have occasionally turned violent, resulting in arrests and legal repercussions. Despite these challenges, Morocco’s youth remain steadfast in their fight for a more equitable future.
