Morocco is still saddled with high levels of poverty, glaring income inequality and low human development indicators relative to other countries in the region. Despite great strides in expanding basic education and resolving gender imbalances over the last decade morocco still suffers the historical legacy of little attention to social issues. At present about 15% of the population is considered poor and an additional 25 per cent as economically vulnerable. Roughly two thirds of the poor live in rural areas, although the share in urban areas is rising, moreover there are great differences not only between urban and rural areas but within each. Indeed, two communities can exist side by side with 80% and 5% poverty levels respectively. Morocco’s extremely low ranking on the 2005 UNDP (United Nations development program) human development index, 124th position out of 177 countries, came as a wake-up call to many in the country.
