Morocco continues to foster its foothold at UN agencies with a recent triple election by the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) to three important bodies. Morocco was elected to the executive Boards of UN-Women, UNICEF and the Commission for social development. This election is reflective of Morocco’s clout at international bodies thanks to the credibility it enjoys among UN member states. Regarding the Commission for Social Development, Morocco will serve a four-year term. It is composed of 46 members who examine each year themes related to social development.
