Moroccan public institutions used the International Publishing and Book Fair in Rabat to promote legal literacy and encourage citizens to use rights that remain underutilized, particularly access to information and personal data protection.
Several constitutional bodies staged joint programming at the International Publishing and Book Fair 2026, including the National Commission for the Protection of Personal Data and the Right of Access to Information Commission, focusing on laws governing digital rights and public transparency.
Through workshops and public sessions, officials sought to explain the practical use of legislation such as Law 09-08 on personal data and Law 31-13 on access to information, as Morocco expands digital services while facing persistent gaps in public awareness.
The effort reflects a broader institutional push to bring citizens closer to governance tools that exist formally but are unevenly used in practice, particularly outside administrative or professional circles.
Other bodies joined the outreach, including the Economic, Social and Environmental Council, which promoted its participatory platform allowing citizens to contribute to public policy debates, and the High Authority for Audiovisual Communication, which ran media literacy sessions aimed at helping the public navigate information flows and understand regulatory safeguards.
The National Authority for Probity and Anti-Corruption focused its programme on younger audiences, using interactive workshops to promote awareness of corruption risks and institutional reporting mechanisms.
Officials presented the joint pavilion as a way to simplify legal frameworks and foster direct engagement, positioning the fair as a space for dialogue rather than passive communication.
The initiative comes as Morocco accelerates digital transformation across public services, increasing the relevance of legal tools governing data use, transparency and administrative accountability.
Judicial officials also highlighted rising demand on institutions, with prosecutors handling nearly 2.5 million case files in 2025 and courts registering more than half a million complaints, underscoring the scale of citizen interaction with the legal system.
