Country Economic Transformation Outlook (CETO)

Context & objectives:
The African Center for Economic Transformation (ACET) is a policy institute dedicated to supporting Africa’s long-term growth through economic transformation. We conduct research, provide policy advice, and mobilize action to help African countries grow their economies, reduce poverty, and improve the livelihoods of all their citizens. As a leading African organization, ACET prioritizes African solutions to African challenges.To strengthen economic transformation, Tunisia must prioritize innovation, women’s economic empowerment, industrial diversification, skills development, improvement of education, support for youth entrepreneurship, investment in research and development, promotion of intra-African trade and exports, as well as digital transformation. It is also essential to harness the informal sector, particularly through digital technologies, while capitalizing on the opportunities presented by the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) to boost manufactured goods exports.
