OCP Policy Center is a think tank that has the ambition to function as an open debate platform, in the spirit of a “public good”, a center for fact-based intellectual stimulation, an incubator for ideas, and a proactive source of proposals for decision-makers and all stakeholders.

Its overarching objective is to enhance corporate and national capacities for objective policy analysis to foster economic and social development, particularly in Morocco and emerging economies. OCP Policy Center does this by conducting and promoting independent policy research, knowledge, and training activities. It aims to create an environment of informed and fact-based public policy debate, especially on the following themes and issues: sustainable agriculture, environment, and food security; macroeconomic policy, economic and social development, and regional economics; commodity economics; understanding key regional and global evolutions shaping the future of Morocco. This is also achieved in partnership with a carefully selected network of think tanks and research organizations located both in Morocco and internationally.

OCP Policy Center strives, through an active Young Leader Program and various training activities, to contribute to develop a new generation of leaders in the public, corporate, and civil society sector in Morocco and more broadly in Africa.

OCP Policy Center is supported by the OCP Foundation.
