Statistics on the incidence of poverty, income per capita (which currently exceeds USD 2,500), and life expectancy at birth (which is 72.1 years), as well as the coverage and quality of the majority of its infrastructure services, show the substantial progress this country has made. These achievements were made possible by the desire of the Tunisian authorities to lay the foundations of a modem competitive economy that is open to the outside world and better integrated in its environment. While these achievements confirm the ability of the Tunisian economy to adapt to new requirements, it also underlines the challenges that the country still has to face in the future. The recent emergence of new economic competitors on the international scene and the coming free trade zone with the European Union have increased the competitive pressure on Tunisian industry and emphasise the importance of continuing and intensifying reforms in the infrastructure

  • Assessing Aquifer Water Level and Salinity for a Managed Artificial
    water Article Assessing Aquifer Water Level and Salinity for a Managed Artificial Recharge Site Using Reclaimed Water Faten Jarraya Horriche and Sihem Benabdallah * Centre of Water Research and Technologies, Geo-resources Laboratory, Techno-park Borj-Cedria, BP 273 Soliman, Tunisia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +216-98-404-777 Received: 11 December 2019; Accepted: 20 January 2020; Published: 25 January 2020 Abstract: This study was carried out to examine the impact of an artificial recharge site on groundwater level and salinity using treated domestic wastewater for the Korba aquifer (north eastern Tunisia). The site is located in a semi-arid region affected by seawater intrusion, inducing an increase in groundwater salinity. Investigation of the subsurface enabled the identification of suitable areas for aquifer recharge mainly composed of sand formations. Groundwater flow and solute transport models (MODFLOW and MT3DMS) were then setup and calibrated for steady and transient states from 1971 to 2005 and used to assess the impact of the artificial recharge site. Results showed that artificial recharge, with a rate of 1500 m3/day and a salinity of 3.3 g/L, could produce a recovery in groundwater level by up to 2.7 m and a reduction in groundwater salinity by as much as 5.7 g/L over an extended simulation period. Groundwater monitoring for 2007–2014, used for model validation, allowed one to confirm that the effective recharge, reaching the water table, is less than the planned values. Keywords: artificial recharge; groundwater; treated wastewater 1. Introduction Water is a critical resource in many Mediterranean countries because of its scarcity and uneven geographical, seasonal, and inter-annual distribution [1,2].

  • Tunisia 2012
    Tunisia 2012 www.africaneconomicoutlook.org Tunisia Tunisia is trying to carry off a delicate political transition against a background of difficult circumstances — post-revolutionary social unrest and instability, the Libyan crisis, and the international crisis. A swift return to social harmony and understanding between those involved in the political process are the main elements on the roadmap indicating the key stages on the way to economic recovery in 2012, together with the setting up of structures for economic governance fit to guarantee investors a legal framework that will encourage prosperous enterprises, making a clean break with the predatory practices of the former regime. Progress has been made in governance in 2011, but the structural problem of youth unemployment requires far-reaching reform, going further than emergency action, whose effects will be felt in the longer term. Overview 2011 saw the revolution of 14 January in Tunisia and its repercussion throughout the Arab world. On 23 October 2011, Tunisia held its first democratic election since independence. The election of the Constituent Assembly allowed the country to move on to a transition phase. This involves the drafting of a new Constitution, laying the foundations for a multi-party democracy based on respect for human rights. The following stage remains delicate, because of the challenge of maintaining social harmony, public security and achieving economic recovery. The political future and economic recovery are closely linked. There can be no economic recovery without stability, and no successful transition to democracy without recovery, providing a tangible response to young people’s aspirations. The revolution revealed the extent of the country’s structural weaknesses: regional disparities, unemployment among young graduates and governance.

This report analyzes the development of the economic and financial situation during the first year of the ninth development plan, and attempts to evaluate our country's ability to manage the effects of the economic situation and to adapt tofinancial globalization. Mr President, the most outstanding feature of the international situation in 1997 was undoubtedly the major monetary andfinancial crisis that began, in the middle of the year, to shake certain countries of South-East Asia, leading to the collapse of their economies and their financial systems. The resulting domino effect was not only detrimental to the region but had negative repercussions on other areas of the world, confirming once again the "global village" aspect of our planet. The crisis revealed the incoherences in the overall management of the region's economies, which until that time had been considered quite successful, and especially the fact that inflation in these countries was higher than in their partner countriès, a phenomenon which inevitably created an interest rate differential. Added to this were the effects of free circulation of capital in a context of fixed exchange rates pegged to the US dollar.

  • Tunisie, a Special Purpose Company Which Will Be the Concessionaire of the Two Airports
    AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT FUND TUNISIA TUNISIA - MONASTIR AND ENFHIDA AIRPORTS PROJECT ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (ESIA) STUDY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PRIVATE SECTOR DEPARTMENT INFRASTRUCTURE AND PPP DIVISION (OPSM.3) August 22th 2008 Project Name: Tunisia: Monastir and Enfhida Airports Project Country: Tunisia Project Number: XXXXXXXX (Mahib, to be completed) Department: OPSM.3 Date: August 22th, 2008 1. Introduction 1.1 Environmental and social categorization and rational This is a Category 2 project because a limited number of specific environmental and social impacts may result from minor upgrading in the existing airport facilities in Monastir and from construction and operation of the new airport at Enfidha1. These impacts, including land acquisition and resettlement, being implemented by the Government, are being managed, in close detail, to international standards and best practices. The new airport in Enfhida has been planned since a Presidential request of February 1998 and the government has since then conducted various public meetings regarding the proposed developments. The Monastir Airport, located 8 km from the city of Monastir, has been in operation for 40 years; the terminal will undergo minor modification, including safety, security and waste management upgrades, as part of the project. It is worth underlying that the Enfidha Airport is currently under construction (40% have been achieved to date, construction works started in summer 2007) and will meet international standards. 2. Project description and justification Tunisia’s existing airports are either already saturated (Monastir airport handled 4.2 million passengers for a nominal capacity of 3.5 millions) or nearing saturation (Tunis-Carthage airport) during the peak summer months.
