HACA: what its study of political parties on social media measures
The study covers twelve parties and data from January to May 2026, rather than September election results.
HACA has published a study of political communication and social media, with the announcement reported on 5 October 2026 by the official Maroc.ma portal. Its digital media working group examines opportunities for expression and risks of disinformation.
The section on parties uses data collected from January to May 2026. Its sample comprises the twelve parties represented in Parliament after the 2021 election. It therefore does not directly describe the September 2026 campaign or results.
Facebook, TikTok, YouTube and X are examined, along with party websites. Coverage varies according to each party’s presence on a platform. Comparing activity volumes without accounting for this difference would be misleading.
For readers, the value lies in understanding how political messages circulate. HACA highlights algorithm transparency, digital education and diverse information sources. These are proposed responses, rather than newly announced obligations already in force.
