Tunisia Way

Thanks to the wide-ranging reforms it has undertaken, Tunisia has managed, in a relatively short period of time, to make significant gains on the political, economic and social planes.

Those gains have earned it the interest and consideration of the international community which, owing to the growth levels attained by the GDP and the improved living conditions of the inhabitants in spite of the country's modest natural resources, presents the Tunisian case as a model of success for developing countries.

A model based on continual search for better balance between the imperatives of sustained economic development and the demands for coherent social promotion.

In accordance with this vision, Man is perceived as a full actor in the development process and the main target of all the policies and choices implemented.

Indeed, thanks to the country's political stability since the Change on November 7, 1987, the climate of confidence, and the liberation of initiatives, Tunisia has been able to take confident and decisive steps towards the openness of its economy and the achievement of social welfare for its citizens.

A member country of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Tunisia is also the first country on the southern coast of the Mediterranean to have concluded a partnership and cooperation agreement with the European Union, the main component of which is the establishment of a free-trade zone.

In this perspective, Tunisia has initiated an important program of multisectoral reforms aimed at laying the foundations for a solid, diversified and competitive economy capable of adapting to the new international environment.
