Country: Impact and Urban Numbers
UN-Habitat's initiatives in Tunisia revolutionize waste management, empowering communities and fostering sustainability. Projects in Beni Khalled and Sousse streamline waste processes while empowering locals, notably women. In Beni Khalled, the "From Citrus Waste to Prosperity" initiative not only tackles waste but also bolsters economic growth. Efforts in Sousse prioritize the safety and well-being of informal waste collectors. Additionally, transforming the Oued Laya landfill into a renewable energy site exemplifies commitment to sustainability and circular economy principles.
