Here’s the latest I can share based on recent public reporting.
- Morocco completed its 2024 General Population and Housing Census (RGPH 2024). Field data collection ran through September 2024, with about 55,000 enumerators mobilized across the country, and preliminary results were anticipated in the following months.[2][5]
- The census was designed to update demographic and housing data, informing policy planning and development priorities, including social protection and investment planning.[3]
- Initial figures emerged later in 2024 and early 2025, with some outlets reporting population estimates in the mid-to-high 30 millions range and discussions around population growth trends, though full official results were released progressively through late 2024 and 2025 (note: official final statistics are issued by Morocco’s High Commission for Planning).[9][2]
If you’d like, I can pull and summarize the most recent official results from Morocco’s High Commission for Planning or provide a brief timeline of the census process and key themes it aimed to measure (e.g., housing, literacy, languages, and social protection coverage). Additionally, I can search for the latest citations from Moroccan government sources or reputable regional outlets to verify the current status.
