HIBAPRESS – Rabat
King Mohammed VI appointed Qaloub Fetah as Delegate Minister to the Head of Government, responsible for Relations with Parliament and Civil Society, as part of the new government headed by Fatima Ezzahra Mansouri.
Fetah is considered one of the prominent female figures within the Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM), having accumulated experience in parliamentary work and party organization, alongside her interest in women's issues and political participation, before transitioning to government responsibility.
Qaloub Fetah hails from the city of Assilah, where she began her educational journey, before pursuing her university studies at the Faculty of Law in Tangier. She chose the legal field as a professional path, joining the bar as a trainee lawyer in 2003, and becoming an official lawyer in 2006. She also obtained a Master's degree in Criminal Sciences and Security Studies, an academic background that accompanied her professional and political career.
On the political level, Fetah was elected as a Member of Parliament for the Authenticity and Modernity Party. She worked within the Committee on Justice, Legislation, Human Rights, and Freedoms in the House of Representatives and participated in thematic working groups related to equality, equity, and combating violence against women.
In May 2023, Qaloub Fetah was elected President of the Organization of Women of the Authenticity and Modernity Party, a position that allowed her to undertake organizational and advocacy roles related to strengthening women's participation in political and elected life.
The appointment of Qaloub Fetah to head the ministry responsible for Relations with Parliament and Civil Society places her before the responsibility of managing the relationship between the government and the legislative institution, and keeping pace with interaction with civil society components.
This field includes following up on the legislative process and oversight work, alongside supporting association participation and strengthening participatory democracy. These files will constitute the most prominent axes of her new governmental responsibility.
