Advancing social cohesion and conflict prevention during the democratic transition in Tunisia

In Tunisia, the UN Development Programme (UNDP) has been supporting the government, civil society, the private sector and other stakeholders in the democratic transition following the revolution in 2011. 

Despite the progress Tunisia made since establishing a new constitution in 2014, there are many elements in the democratic transition that have not yet been completed. These include justice and security sector reform, anti-corruption and revision of the legal institutional framework. In addition, Tunisia is facing new challenges, such as countering terrorism and extremism.
