The Social Solidarity Economy in Morocco: Institutionalisation, Challenges and Contributions to the Sustainable Development Goals
Journal Title: Journal of Economics, Finance and Management Studies - Year 2025, Vol 8, Issue 03
Abstract
This article examines the contribution of the social and solidarity economy (SSE) in Morocco to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Drawing on a rich heritage of local traditions and benefiting from sectoral political support, the Moroccan SSE is analysed in terms of its impact on inequalities and its alignment with the SDGs. This analysis is carried out despite the fragmentation of its legal framework and the persistent challenges of institutionalisation. Through an in-depth literature review, the examination of statistical data and the study of concrete cases, this article assesses the impact of SSE, particularly in terms of poverty reduction, gender equality and the promotion of inclusive growth. The results highlight a real contribution, but one that is still limited by legal and structural weaknesses. The article argues that there is an urgent need to strengthen the institutionalisation of SSE in order to maximise its potential as a lever for sustainable development in Morocco.
