Lesson Learned: Support for Democratic Transition and Promotion of Citizenship

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.

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.
