The Seminar is being jointly organized by the Parliament of the Kingdom of Morocco, the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). It is intended to:

• Initiate a high-level dialogue on how to strengthen the relationship between parliament and citizens in the dynamic and evolving context of the Arab world; and
• Examine the findings of the Global Parliamentary Report through the lens of the specificities of the Arab world and identify challenges and opportunities related to enhancing parliamentary representation in the current regional context.

The participants will be invited to draw up concrete measures aimed at strengthening parliament’s relationship with citizens.
