Initialed by the president of the CESE, Ahmed Reda Chami, and the president of the CGEM, Chakib Alj, this convention aims, in particular, to take into consideration the opinion of actors in the private sector to develop and present reading keys and issue operational recommendations to further accelerate the investment dynamic and seize the opportunities that present themselves in Morocco, by 2030.
Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Reda Chami stressed the need to involve Moroccan companies, represented by the CGEM, in the creation of the Council’s reports, noting that these companies have essential intelligence to integrate into said reports and can themselves propose topics for reports to the Council, thus allowing better representation of economic issues.
The president of the EESC also noted the importance of working on subjects of common interest with the CGEM as part of an exchange of good practices, with a view to promoting the inclusion of the private sector in a set of relevant debates relating to economic, social and environmental perspectives. For his part, Mr. Alj highlighted the various important themes on which the two institutions could exchange and collaborate, such as sustainability, the integration of the informal sector, labor legislation, the development of human capital, digitalization, territorial development, or even the promotion of women’s economic participation. The signing of this agreement materializes the desire of the two institutions to work together, with the hope of lasting and concrete effects on the development of the country, he maintained.
Under this agreement, the CESE and the CGEM plan to share their respective publications, the regular organization of thematic meetings, spaces for dialogue as well as the carrying out of joint reflection work.
This meeting was marked by a citizen workshop devoted to the theme “For a circular economy of electrical and electronic equipment: from waste to resource”, which saw the participation of several contributors from the two institutions. This topic, brought under self-referral by the CESE, will be the subject of an opinion published by the Council.
