TUNISIA- 2007- 2011 Country Strategy Paper - Approved on March 28, 2007
Considering Tunisia’s encouraging performance in the implementation of the 10th Plan, such as the Bank’s positive contribution to its results, the Bank’s assistance strategy is aimed at supporting Government efforts to attain the objectives of the 11th Plan. Given the performance and shortcomings of the 10th Plan, this next plan will focus on the double challenge of speeding up economic growth in a context of greater trade liberalization and the curbing of unemployment which undermines social cohesion and all the poverty reduction gains made so far. For greater efficiency, flexibility and selectivity, the Bank’s assistance strategy for 2007-2011 has retained three pillars: (i) The reinforcement of macroeconomic policies and acceleration of reforms addresses the need to improve the business environment and is geared towards consolidating the reform programs already initiated by the Bank. The expected outcomes are the consolidation of the macroeconomic framework and greater competitiveness. (ii) The modernization of infrastructure and consolidation of the productive sector is a strategic option for speeding up growth that will be bolstered by the Bank’s past experience. It will contribute to the creation of wealth and improve the wellbeing of the people. (iii) The consolidation of human capital focuses on creating employment, in particular by consolidating the linkages between training, research and production; supporting the development of technological centers that give concrete form to such linkages; and ensuring balanced regional development.
