Evidence snapshot for Tunisia
Tunisia has implemented several large-scale development initiatives with measurable reach. The Zones Blanches broadband project connected approximately 180,000 rural inhabitants, 164 schools and 59 health centres across 94 sectors to 4G speeds exceeding 20 Mbps, while the GDEO oases ecosystems project reached 8,640 beneficiaries (48% of target) and created roughly 550 jobs including 170 permanent positions. On gender representation, Tunisia achieved 47% women councillors in its 2018 municipal elections—the highest in the MENA region—through electoral parity laws requiring alternating and equal-led candidate lists. Digital skills training through the Orange Digital Center had trained over 3,286 people and placed 1,387 in jobs by end-2022, though most of these practices lack post-implementation evaluation or longer-term outcome tracking.
