STATEMENT: MOROCCO RE-ELECTED TO THE HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL ADVISORY COMMITTEE (HRCAC)

This re-election reflects the Kingdom's high level of credibility in the international community due to its substantial efforts in promoting, protecting, and strengthening human rights on both national and international levels, in line with the vision of HM King Mohammed VI.

Moroccan candidates have consistently gained the trust of UN member states across various UN bodies responsible for promoting human rights, with Moroccan experts being elected to nearly all human rights treaty bodies.

Ms. Bernoussi's successful re-election is the result of an extensive diplomatic campaign promoting the Moroccan candidacy.

Ms. Bernoussi, a member of the Venice Commission and the Human Rights Council Advisory Committee since 2020, is a prominent figure in the field of human rights, both nationally and internationally. She has been actively involved as a Member of the 2011 Constitutional Review Advisory Commission and continues to make a significant contribution to academic research in the realm of human rights.

The Human Rights Council Advisory Committee comprises 18 experts and serves as a think-tank focusing on the promotion and protection of all human rights.
