Hence, global recommendations came to the need to combat terrorism with psychological, cultural and educational weapons.
Morocco has traced the path of terrorist groups, and developed many ways to dismantle and weaken them, through a set of strategies developed by the state to limit the spread of extremist ideology, as well as to confront terrorism and the actions related to it. These strategies were based on activating the security and judicial aspects, reforming and rehabilitating the religious field, paying attention to the social aspect, and developing a plan inside prisons to rehabilitate those convicted of terrorism and extremism issues, and to empower prisoners with competencies that positively reflect on their behavior and their interaction with laws and with others.
