Tunisia
Republic of Tunisia
Tunisia is a diversified North African economy with strong manufacturing, tourism, and agricultural sectors. The country has a well-educated workforce and close economic ties to the European Union, particularly France, Italy, and Germany. Tunisia is a major manufacturer of auto parts, electronic components, textiles, and olive oil (world's fourth-largest producer).
The country's proximity to Europe (2 hours by air to major EU cities) and competitive labor costs make it attractive for nearshoring. The offshore sector benefits from a preferential tax regime. The Tunis Stock Exchange (BVMT) is one of North Africa's most active bourses.
Since the 2011 revolution, Tunisia has faced economic challenges including fiscal deficits, high youth unemployment, and political uncertainty. Relations with international lenders (IMF) are complex, with a $1.9 billion loan program stalled over reform conditionality.

Climate Readiness Full ranking
How this is computed
Adaptive capacity to absorb climate finance and adapt, following the readiness dimension of the ND-GAIN framework. Built only from measured values already held on each country profile. It is not a measure of emissions or physical climate vulnerability, which the platform does not yet hold.
- Energy access (30%) — World Bank, access to electricity (% of population). The single most climate and energy specific signal held: SDG 7 and the clean-energy transition.
- Governance readiness (20%) — Transparency International, Corruption Perceptions Index (0-100). ND-GAIN governance readiness: the capacity to govern and deploy climate finance. Higher is cleaner.
- Human readiness (20%) — UNDP, Human Development Index (0-1). ND-GAIN social readiness: the adaptive capacity of the population.
- Economic readiness (15%) — World Bank, GDP per capita (current US$), latest measured year. ND-GAIN economic readiness: the capacity to finance adaptation. Scored relative to the covered set.
- Digital readiness (15%) — World Bank, individuals using the Internet (% of population). Information systems for early warning and adaptation.
A country is scored only when at least 4 of the five indicators are held. Sub-scores are weighted and renormalised over the indicators that are present; nothing is estimated for one that is absent.
