World Bank Warns of Water Crisis Impact on Tunisia
The World Bank report has warned of the impacts of the water crisis on the Tunisian economy, indicating that if the crisis is not addressed, it could lead to a loss of approximately 6.4% of GDP by 2050 and a 30% reduction in employment opportunities in the agricultural sector. Tunisia's renewable water resources do not exceed 380 cubic meters per person annually, which is below the water poverty threshold, with pressures increasing due to climate change and rising demand. The report recommended revising water tariffs, strengthening public-private partnerships in water desalination projects, and improving the financial performance of sector institutions to address the crisis, which is now affecting all economic and human sectors in Tunisia.
