In the future, Morocco may seek to further liberalize its abortion laws. In 2015, the government (by the king's decree) began to allow abortions in cases of rape or incest. Furthermore, the Moroccan Health Minister told the Associated Press, “Morocco’s penal code on abortion is very restrictive; the law is not fair to women. It doesn’t take into account the reality that Moroccans live in these days - there is an urgent need to revise this law."[1] However, these are also conservative and religious groups in Morocco, which are actively and vocally opposed to abortion.
