Public debt, growth and stabilization in Tunisia: A new narrative for a structural reform agenda

This paper assesses debt sustainability in Tunisia using the Debt Sustainability Analysis (DSA). We construct three hypothetical scenarios (A, B and C) over the period 2023-2027. The first two scenarios are called Business as usual approaches. In Scenario A, we assume that Tunisia will continue the same path as in the past three years, without an IMF agreement. In scenario B, Tunisia reaches an agreement with the IMF. However, the lack of considerable progress on the reform agenda causes the ending of the IMF agreement. The last one (Scenario C) is a proactive reform scenario.

Access to Government Public Procurement Opportunities

The youth, women and persons with disabilities are categorized as part of vulnerable populations that are normally over looked by government initiatives and programs and are therefore less likely to receive skills training which puts them at a greater risk of being unemployed and having no source of income (Attaran, 2002). This is one of the reasons that the Kenyan government came up with the Access of Government Procurement Opportunities AGPO program.
