Lesson Learned: Support for Democratic Transition and Promotion of Citizenship
Participation of members of the partner agencies and of the local organisations was remarkably high, particularly in the training sessions. The students and the rural women also responded in a very positive way to the project interventions. However, young adults who were not in education were mores hesitant about getting involved.

Project Description
The project intended to tackle the low level of civic participation in the disadvantaged rural zones of central Tunisia and to boost the civic commitment of those populations. In addition to strengthening the capacity of local actors to transmit information about the election process, the project aimed to increase awareness of and participation of targeted groups - women, young adults and adolescents - in the mechanisms and the activities of Tunisian civil society.
Taking into account the profile of the grantee’s partner organizations and the available resources, not all of the project’s objectives were realistic or achievable.
The partners introduced important modifications to the expected results during project implementation and there were several delays which affected the way that activities were implemented.

The students who participated in the reflection process on the new constitution gained a better understanding about the importance of democratic values. It is hoped that those achievements will counterbalance the influence of the religious radical rhetoric.

The field research undertaken as part of the project interviewed a wide sample of citizens and provided a precise diagnosis of the electoral behaviour of those communities, but the end-product was too academic and lacked digestible messages that could be easily communicated as part of sensitization activities.

Some of the activities assigned to partners were not carried out neither were they replaced by other activities. There were great disparities between the activities and the achieved outcomes. The grantee could have reorganized its very ambitious and confusing results framework to link activities, outputs and outcomes more clearly. The grantee could benefit from training on results frameworks and monitoring.

The projects implementing partners had little experience in fund-raising which jeopardized the sustainability of the activities after the project closed. Information about fundraising strategies, key bilateral and multilateral funders as well as possible sources of corporate philanthropy should be shared among the project partners.
