Bidding nation Morocco
Morocco has been engaged, since the turn of the century, in a continuous process to improve the level of human rights. As a result, the country complies with the highest international standards – as well as with its own historical and multicultural references in the field.
In the context of its 2026 FIFA World CupTM, the FRMF (Royal Moroccan Football Federation) has undertaken its own initiative in line with the national movement. It has consulted with many stakeholders and notably collaborated with the National Human Rights Council (CNDH) in order to implement a relevant and effective human rights strategy...
The FRMF President signed an explicit public commitment to ensure that the FIFA World CupTM will be an exemplary event from a human rights standpoint, in compliance with all FIFA and other international requirements...
[T]he FRMF has also prepared its own report, entitled “Human Rights Strategy in the framework of the 2026 FIFA World CupTM”(available as an appendix). It considers all of the standards and international guidelines recommended by FIFA, and includes the following elements:
• An analysis of the risks related to the preparation and organisation of the 2026 FIFA World CupTM;
• An action plan;
• The outlines of a reasonable diligence programme.
