Highlights

The World Bank has recently prepared a policy report on "strengthening the Tunisian system for international employment" upon request from the Ministry of Vocational Training and Employment with the aim of providing a systematic analysis to understand how the Government of Tunisia could improve its policies and capacities to better seize the opportunities of international employment in different types of destination markets. The purpose of this seminar is to engage concrete discussions with the Tunisian public stakeholders and Tunisia’s European partners on the basis of the diagnostic conducted and the recommendations formulated in this report. These discussions will provide the opportunity to reflect on the critical review of the existing institutions, regulations and policies related to international labor migration both in Tunisia and at the bilateral level with important destination markets such as France, Germany and Canada. This workshop is organized in partnership with the Ministry of Investment and International Cooperation and will convene several ministries and public agencies dealing with international migration issues in Tunisia, as well as the relevant French institutions (Pole Emploi, French Office for Immigration and Integration), the GIZ and the European Union delegation in Tunis.
