"Political stability and security have played an important role for the success of support programmes", the EC said, noting the "positive results obtained in the field of governance in the public sectors.
"In Morocco, the EU has promoted progress in social cohesion", says the report which underlines that "partnership between Morocco and the EU is comprehensive, covering a wide array of policy sectors."
It further writes that "the Moroccan authorities have achieved promising results" in the field of social cohesion, citing "a sharp increase in the net school enrolment rates at primary level for girls (94.4% in 2011-12 compared to 84% in 2007-08), and the near achievement of universal access to the education objective at primary level".
In the public health sector, the report points to "an increase of 50% of obstetrical complications treated in a public hospital" and a 2013 rate of 77.1 pc of births attended by qualified medical staff, compared to only 58% five years earlier.
The European Neighborhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI) was created as a successor to the cooperation programs TACIS (for the Eastern European countries) and MEDA (for the Mediterranean countries), with enlarged objectives and an increased budget.
It was operational from January 2007, and its programming phase ended in January 2014, when it was replaced by the European Neigbourhood Instrument (ENI).
The main purpose of the ENPI was to create an area of shared values, stability and prosperity, enhanced cooperation and deeper economic and regional integration by covering a wide range of cooperation areas
