The Democratic Association of Moroccan Women (Association Démocratique de Femmes de Maroc, ADFM) is a Moroccan women's rights organization established in 1985.
Its co-founders included Rabia Nacir, Amina Lamrini, Farida Bennani,[2] and Najia Zirari.
As an organization, the ADFM grew out of the women's section of the Party of Progress and Socialism (PPS).
[1]Rather than trying to be a mass women's movement, the ADFM has been an intellectual pressure group working with intermediaries such as "teachers, the media, political parties, trade unions, and youth organizations".
For instance after a national campaign in 1993, a 13 July 1995 Royal decree abolished the male tutelage requirement that women secure their husband's permission before being allowed to work.
