Sudanese refugees face challenges at borders and in bureaucracy in Morocco

Morocco’s National Strategy on Immigration and Asylum, adopted in 2013, has yet to result in a formal asylum law, leaving UNHCR to handle refugee status determinations. Recognized refugees face significant barriers, including limited access to work and inadequate accommodation, as only 80 out of over 22,000 registered refugees have secured formal jobs. Many asylum seekers live in precarious conditions, with no clear path to resettlement, while fears of police intervention add to their uncertainty.
