Baseline Report: SFCG-Morocco Support to the Formative Stages of Mediation in Morocco

This baseline study provides information for the second phase of the SFCG ADR programme in Morocco (known as ADR2), and not the whole ADR programme. The key objective of this baseline report is to provide information to monitor the development of the second phase and measure the outcomes of its activities.
The first phase of the ADR programme in Morocco aimed to generate changes in the knowledge, attitude, and behaviour of key stakeholders, including judges and officials at the Ministry of Justice (MoJ), and the evaluation focused on these stakeholders. Since the current phase of the programme (ADR2) focuses on different stakeholders than those of the first phase, this baseline study has also collected and analysed information on the attitudes, knowledge, and behaviour of these other groups (lawyers and Civil Society Organisations).
Since the ADR2 project is focusing primarily on lawyers and CSOs, this baseline report will thus provide us with on the level of knowledge, skills and attitudes that lawyers and CSO have presently before the launching of the first activities of ADR2. Throughout the project, the same range of data will allow us to closely monitor and assess change and evolution if any on the level of knowledge, skills and attitudes of the same target group. As mentioned earlier, an end of programme evaluation will take place at the end of ADR3 in order to evaluate all three stages of the project, ADR1, ADR2 and ADR3.
