Voices from Within: Women’s Narratives and the Challenge of Family Law Reform in Morocco

Author(s) Mr. Younes Ouchelh
Country Morocco
Abstract The ongoing reform of the Family Code in Morocco reflects a significant cultural and legal evolution aimed at enhancing gender equality within the Moroccan family. Initiated by King Mohammed VI’s call on July 30, 2022, the reform project addresses pressing issues, including underage marriage, polygamy, legal guardianship, inheritance rights, divorce procedures, and the distribution of responsibilities and assets during married life. However, the reform process faces considerable challenges, notably potential societal backlash, conservative socio-cultural norms, and socioeconomic vulnerability. This article examines the complexities of this reform process in light of women’s narratives, with a particular focus on the impact of the Family Code on women’s lives. Data analysis reveals a deep-rooted tension between progressive ideals and conservative values on the one hand, and socioeconomic insecurity on the other. The practical implementation of the upcoming reform depends on a textual revision of the Family Code and an improvement in the people’s socioeconomic status. Furthermore, the reform process should follow an inclusive dialogue that engages diverse segments of society, ensuring that legal changes resonate with cultural values while promoting global human rights standards.
