Tour operator/travel agency (TANIT Stories from the Field – Closing  Visibility Tours)-Leaders International عودة إلى الفرص

Leaders International is a forward-thinking economic development organisation that brings together  governments, community groups and private sector partners to work on various projects across the  Middle East and Africa. 

With offices in Belgium, Jordan, Palestine, and Tunisia, we create partnerships that bridge the gap  between east and west in order to create new opportunities, resources and accelerate the growth of  underdeveloped and developing economies. Our focus areas include MSME Development,  Entrepreneurship & Innovation, Digital Transformation, Livelihoods & Employability, Green Growth,  and Alternative & Sustainable Tourism. 

The TANIT project is born out of the need to strengthen the capacity of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs)  in Tunisia, particularly within the alternative tourism sector. CSOs play a crucial role in advocating for  sustainable, inclusive development, with a specific focus on gender equality and human rights. TANIT  builds on the successes of past projects, such as the 4T project, expanding its scope to cover regions like  the Northwest, Zaghouan, and Dahar. By providing CSOs with targeted training, coaching, and  collaborative opportunities, the project aims to foster positive change and a more equitable and  resilient alternative tourism sector in Tunisia.
