Constitutional Union Leader Calls for Economic Growth Driven by Citizen Impact, Regional Equity

Casablanca – Setting out his party’s political blueprint, Constitutional Union’s (UC) General Secretary Mohamed Joudar envisions an economy built around tangible job creation, elevated public services, and the eradication of rent-seeking practices. 

Central to this vision is territorial justice, a decisive push to eliminate economic disparities between the Kingdom’s regions so that opportunity and investment are shared equally across the Kingdom.

Joudar advocates for a complete alignment between national education systems, and the evolving needs of the job market. Under this strategy, the state would actively incentivize companies that generate stable employment.

The party also aims to contribute to soaring local production and consolidating economic sovereignty, while investing heavily in strategic pillars: domestic industry, agriculture, the digital economy, water security, and pharmaceuticals. 

Calling for greater participation in the September 23 vote, Joudar insists that trust is built through credibility, and implemented commitments, calling on political parties for a meaningful integration of young people into political decision-making.

To reflect this philosophy, the Constitutional Union has instituted a “rigorous candidate selection process, evaluating contenders strictly on integrity, community proximity, and their ability to advocate effectively within elected bodies.”

After spending nearly twenty-two years on the opposition benches, the Constitutional Union now sees itself at a pivotal turning point. While Joudar considers post-election coalition talks premature, he emphasizes that the party possesses the leadership, expertise, and operational readiness to step out of the opposition and actively contribute to governing the country.

In evaluating the outgoing government, Joudar takes a measured approach, rejecting political bashing in favor of objective assessment. While acknowledging the significant reform projects launched in recent years, he argues that pressing issues like purchasing power cannot be solved with short-term fixes. 

Instead, he calls for structural reforms focused on regulating markets and cutting out non-productive intermediaries that artificially drive up consumer costs.

Ultimately, the roadmap laid out by Joudar calls for a fundamental mindset shift in Moroccan governance. For the Constitutional Union, the next era must ensure that the fruits of Morocco’s national growth belong to every citizen.
