Abstract

Between 1983 and 2000, Morocco experienced moderate economic growth, insufficient to address rapid population growth and rising unemployment. To tackle these challenges, the Kingdom of Morocco implemented several initiatives, notably the National Initiative for Human Development (INDH), aimed at reducing inequalities and promoting economic inclusion. This paper examines the impact of the INDH's "Youth Economic Inclusion and Income Improvement" program, implemented in the Kénitra province, as a driver of social entrepreneurship. The research aims to explore how this program contributes to creating economic opportunities for youth and women while fostering sustainable and inclusive development. Through an in-depth analysis of data collected from beneficiaries and stakeholders, the findings highlight achievements while identifying limitations and challenges that need to be addressed to maximize the program's impact. This study offers insights into strengthening public policies and strategies to support social entrepreneurship in Morocco.Keywords:INDH; economic inclusion; entrepreneurship; unemployment; Morocco.
