Abstract

This research deals with the program of the National Initiative for Human Development, a social project aim to improving the standard of living of Moroccans by fighting poverty, combating social exclusion, supporting income-generating activities, caring for women, children and people in difficult situations. The study examines the impact of the National Initiative for Human Development on Moroccan economic growth from 2006 to 2017, which is the period that combines the first and second phases of this program. Literature Reviews that dealt with the relationship between human development and economic growth were also highlighted. Secondary data was used based on World Bank reports in this regard, and the investment budget for the National Initiative for Human Development was based on reports of the National Coordination of the Initiative (Moroccan Ministry of Interior). By error correction model, it was found that there is a long-term positive relationship between investment in the national initiative for human development (INDH) and Moroccan gross domestic product (GDP). The conclusion from this relationship is that strengthening the role of the national initiative, as a tool for economic and social reform will positively affect GDP and the Moroccan economy in general.
