Tunisia in a Changing Climate: Assessment and Actions for Increased Resilience and Development (World Bank Study) - Hardcover
Tunisia in a Changing Climate: Assessment and Actions for Increased Resilience and Development is
part of the World Bank Studies series. These papers are published to communicate the results
of the Bank’s ongoing research and to stimulate public discussion.
This book provides an assessment of climate risks, as well as opportunities and possible
actions for addressing climate change, in Tunisia. It recognizes that the Tunisian revolution of
January 14th, 2011, created significant change in the country, resulting in new challenges and
opportunities for addressing further change. Following the revolution, improvements in access to
information, institutional capacity, and accountability have enhanced the governance and transparency
that are essential for effective climate change responses. However, political uncertainty
has affected both foreign direct investment and tourism, which have further impacted already high
rates of poverty and unemployment.
