Green Forward" Program in Tunisia: Second Regional Workshop toAccelerate the Transition to a Green and Circular Economy
Monastir, July 10, 2025
As part of the "Green Forward" program, implemented at the national level by the Tunis International Center for Environmental Technologies (CITET) in partnership with SPARK and funded by the European Union, a second regional thematic workshop was held on July 10 in Monastir. The objective of this event was to identify the needs of the Tunisian ecosystem in order to promote an effective transition toward a green and circular economy, while initiating a national momentum around this theme.
This workshop is part of a decentralization approach and aims to strengthen synergies between public, private, and technical actors to better address local environmental challenges.
Bringing together a diverse range of stakeholders — public and private institutions, support structures, technical experts, and partners — the event provided an opportunity to present the strategic framework of the Green Forward program, coordinated by CITET and structured around three components: macro, meso, and micro. These components are designed to support ecological transition efforts at various levels of Tunisia’s economic and institutional fabric.
The discussions were organized around four thematic round tables:
1. Strategic positioning and cooperation between ecosystem support organizations (OSE) for ecological transition;
2. Strengthening internal capacities of OSEs to support businesses;
3. Access to financing and tailored financial engineering for green projects;
4. Awareness-raising, mobilization, and dissemination of best practices.
These discussions helped establish a diagnosis of the current situation, identify challenges faced by support structures both regionally and nationally, and propose concrete action levers to support the ecological transition.
The outcomes of this workshop, combined with those of other events conducted under the program, will serve as the foundation for developing a national roadmap and a capacity-building mechanism that is truly aligned with the needs of support structures — enabling them to fully play their role in the ecological transition and effectively support SMEs, start-ups, and other providers of sustainable solutions.
It is important to highlight that a first workshop was held on July 3, 2025, at CITET's headquarters in Tunis, within the broader implementation framework of the Green Forward program.
