At a glance Morocco clearly illustrates an internationally recognized imperative of conciliating development programmes and actions with the environment and climate change ones. According to the country’s ‘Projet de Stratégie Nationale de Développement Durable 2030’, Morocco faces interconnected socio-environmental challenges, social vulnerabilities and rising inequalities in a context of acute climatic variability and change. The Belgian Development Cooperation has embarked on the challenge to work together with Moroccan actors towards addressing intertwining socio-environmental issues and as such giving a renewed relevance to its development agendas in the country. In this context, ADAPTtoDEVELOP, acronym for this PSR project, applied a participatory research methodology to co-produce a roadmap defining Morocco’s priorities in terms of the development-climate change nexus, and related strategic and operational steps for the Belgian Development cooperation. This roadmap is presented throughout this policy brief.
