Initialed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Abroad, Nasser Bourita, and the Minister of State for the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia and the United Nations of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon, this Strategic Framework aims to support, facilitate and strengthen bilateral cooperation on climate action, clean energy and green growth in order to support Morocco’s development towards a sustainable, low-carbon and resilient economy with a view to ensuring a responsible and accelerated transition from fossil fuels to clean and affordable energy.
It also aims at the systemic integration of climate action and impacts into government and private sector planning and action, as well as the growth of strong, diversified and sustainable economic/productive sectors in Morocco that unlock quality jobs, investment and growth.
This signing comes on the sidelines of the 4th session of the Morocco-United Kingdom Strategic Dialogue, co-chaired by Mr. Bourita and Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon, which was sanctioned by the publication of a Joint Declaration in which the two parties welcomed the excellence of bilateral relations and reaffirmed their common desire to further strengthen their Strategic Partnership.
Launched in London on July 5, 2018, this Strategic Dialogue aims to consolidate the historical links between the two Kingdoms and to continue strengthening bilateral relations.
It is structured around four structuring themes, namely the political and diplomatic component, security cooperation, economic cooperation and cultural and educational cooperation.
Working groups have been established under each pillar of cooperation aimed at strengthening exchanges and consultation on priority bilateral issues and identifying new prospects for cooperation in these areas.
