Resumen
Descripción
Tunisia emerges today the only success
story of the Arab Spring revolution that swept the Arab
world five years ago. This poverty assessment seeks to learn
from the pre and post revolution periods with a view of
avoiding the repetition of past mistakes in the future.
Specifically, it will provide Tunisians with a more detailed
and updated diagnostics of poverty, regional disparities,
trends over time and the strong links between poverty,
inequality, opportunities, and vulnerability. Beyond
statistics, this report will also provide a somber but more
balanced alternative explanation of socioeconomic
development in the country, which will hopefully complement
the efforts of the Government of Tunisia to develop and
implement its strategic development plan. This poverty
assessment questions the extent to which growth was truly
pro-poor in Tunisia and, more importantly, capable of
reducing inequalities and increasing inclusion in society.
This questioning sheds light on Tunisia’s prospects for a
more prosperous society if substantive changes in the
socioeconomic model are not introduced. The poverty
assessment analysis goes into a post-2010 analysis;
expanding as well the analysis of monetary poverty to
broader concepts of vulnerability and equal opportunities;
and by enriching traditional instruments with more
sophisticated tools to measure poverty, analyze poverty
dynamics, and simulate the effects of certain policy reforms
for the first time in Tunisia.
