Abstract

This article investigates how AI can contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the Moroccan public sector centered on SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, Infrastructure) and SDG 16 (Peace, Justice, Strong Institutions). Description of the most representative AI projects developed in the public administration. The study describes a number of AI initiatives from public administrations as an example for the potential of the use of AI tools in promoting transparency, efficiency and institutional innovation. The roadblocks of data privacy, the digital divide, and organizational resistance are also considered. The paper highlights that, while AI has significant transformative potential, its adoption must be accompanied by strong regulatory and ethical frameworks, as well as inclusive approaches to ensure its contribution to sustainable and equitable public governance.
