Gen Z Protests Shake Morocco Over Social Injustices

The Gen Z protests in Morocco, led by the decentralized and leaderless GenZ 212 movement, have erupted due to social injustices and government failures. Issues such as chronic underfunding of the healthcare system, high youth unemployment, and a perceived betrayal of the social contract have fueled the protests.

The government's response, including arbitrary arrests and crackdowns on protestors, has further escalated tensions. The protests reflect a broader discontent among Moroccan youth, reminiscent of past uprisings in Nepal and Madagascar, highlighting the need for systemic change and social justice reforms.
