2027-2031 programme: 20 measurable commitments to change course
Five charters, twenty measurable commitments, MAD 350 billion: the 2027-2031 programme the PAM took into the September 2026 elections.
Unveiled on 1 September 2026 under the slogan “To change course. One word!”, the Authenticity and Modernity Party’s (PAM) programme for 2027-2031 brings together five charters and twenty measurable commitments, with a costed budget and clear financing mechanisms. It is the programme on which the PAM, whose collegial leadership is coordinated by Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri, fought the legislative elections of 23 September 2026, finishing first with 97 seats. Six days later, His Majesty King Mohammed VI appointed her Head of Government.
A costed framework
The programme puts its cumulative additional cost at around MAD 350 billion over five years, or close to MAD 70 billion a year. Four charters share this envelope: MAD 150 billion for purchasing power, MAD 100 billion for citizenship, MAD 50 billion for youth integration and MAD 50 billion for strategic security. The fifth, on growth and sustainability, sets the macroeconomic framework meant to make the whole programme possible.
Financing rests on three sources:
- MAD 300 billion expected from the additional effect of growth, with a broader tax base;
- MAD 40 billion contributed by local authorities through the fund dedicated to value-added tax;
- MAD 10 billion from budget reallocation, following a comprehensive review of public spending.
Purchasing power and youth come first
The programme’s first priority, the Purchasing Power Charter (MAD 150 billion), which the French-language press also calls the “purchasing power pact”, combines higher incomes with a reorganisation of distribution channels. It provides for any monthly electricity bill below 100 dirhams to be free, with no paperwork, and for income tax on wages to move from six brackets to three. No pension would fall below MAD 3,000 a month from the second year of the term, and the floor of direct social support would rise gradually from MAD 500 to MAD 1,000 a month. Six regional agricultural distribution companies would also reduce the number of middlemen between producers and retailers. These measures are covered in detail in the article on the social state and purchasing power.
The second charter, “A horizon for every young person” (MAD 50 billion), aims to make the next term the term of youth. It concerns around one million young people and includes a national pathway for 18 to 29-year-olds not in education, employment or training, reaching around 300,000 a year at full capacity; a “first job contract” for 500,000 young people over five years; and 100,000 housing solutions for young people between 2027 and 2031. See also the commitments for young people.
Citizenship and strategic security
The Citizenship Charter (MAD 100 billion) covers the services that underpin citizenship in daily life: the hospital, work, the school, housing, digital services and Amazigh. Its commitments include 100% health coverage; four new regional university hospitals before the end of 2028 (Beni Mellal, Guelmim, Errachidia and Casablanca); at least one million net jobs over the term, bringing unemployment down from 10.8% to 7% by 2031; and decent housing for 500,000 households. It also pledges fibre-optic coverage for 80% of homes and a MAD 2 billion fund for Amazigh.
The Security Charter (MAD 50 billion) responds to water, food and energy threats, and to the challenge of artificial intelligence. It plans fuel stocks covering three months of national consumption, a share of renewables in electricity consumption raised from 46% to 52%, close to 400 water structures, six desalination plants and the training of 5,000 artificial intelligence instructors. These measures are explored in the article on strategic security.
Growth as the precondition
For the PAM, economic growth is the precondition for delivering every other commitment. The fifth charter targets average annual growth of 5% over 2027-2031, against 3.7% over 2022-2025, with an inflation ceiling of 2%, a budget deficit capped at 3% of GDP and public debt at 62% of GDP by 2031. Nine major structural programmes are meant to support this path.
A five-year contract
In an interview with the MAP news agency on 21 September 2026, two days before the vote, Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri described the programme in these terms:
“It is a five-year contract with the citizen.”

These commitments make up the electoral programme on which the PAM campaigned. Appointed Head of Government and charged with forming the new government, Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri is now to propose its members to the King. The government programme will then be presented to both chambers of Parliament, and the government must obtain the confidence of the House of Representatives, in line with the steps set out in the Constitution.
