National Human Rights Council (CNDH)

Overview

The establishment of the National Human Rights Council (CNDH) strengthens the commitment of Morocco to protecting citizens’ rights and freedoms. It reflects Morocco's respect to its international commitments in the protection and promotion of human rights.

The Council has become like an umbrella institution. It has 13 regional human rights commissions, whose chairpersons are appointed by a Royal decree. These commissions are mandated to monitor the situation of human rights in the different regions of Morocco. They receive and investigate complaints, investigate violations. They implement the programs and projects that the Council designs for the promotion of human rights, in cooperation with local stakeholders.

The National Human Rights Council is also mandated to promote the International Humanitarian Law. In coordination with the competent authorities, the Council coordinates the activities of the different authorities in this regard and follows-up the implementation of the international conventions to which Morocco is a party. It contributes to training and raising awareness programs and develops cooperation partnerships with the International Committee of the Red Cross and all bodies concerned by the international humanitarian law.
