Abstract
Women's political participation in Morocco has evolved significantly over the past few decades, reflecting broader socio-political changes and a growing recognition of gender equality as a cornerstone of democratic governance. This article examines the historical context, current challenges, and future perspectives of women's involvement in Moroccan politics. By analyzing key policies, social dynamics, and cultural factors, the study highlights both the progress made and the barriers that persist in achieving equitable political representation.
