Al Bawsala lance un appel d’offres pour concevoir et construire la plate-forme Web de son nouveau projet Retour vers les opportunités

About the organisations

ASF has been intervening in fragile or transitional contexts to accompany processes of rule of law strengthening. It has been present in Tunisia since 2012, implementing various projects on transitional justice, access to justice for vulnerable people, reform of the judicial system and respect for economic and social rights.
Since then, it has forged a strong partnership with, Al Bawsala and the Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights, who will also be partners to the current project. The three organizations have been meeting since 2017 under the umbrella of the Transitional Justice Monitoring Committee, an informal coalition which brings together some 20 CSOs working in the TJ sector and coordinated by ASF.

Project Presentation

The project « La roujou3 » (Never again) will be implemented in close cooperation with the relevant national counterparts, both institutional and civil society-related. It has been designed to meet the needs of a changing context, based on partners’ expertise and capacities, Al Bawsala and FTDES.
Thus, the overall goal of the project is to contribute to the revitalization of transitional justice efforts in Tunisia in view of effectively dealing with past abuses.
The project will focus on three interrelated specific objectives:

• Strengthening CSOs’ capacities to jointly advocate for the adoption of guarantees of non-repetition
• Putting transitional justice back onto policymakers’ agenda
• Monitoring the TJ process and post-IVD institutional framework
