With the ‘BUNNT-CO’ project, the network development process in north-western Tunisia, which was interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic after 2019, was continued in 2023 and the ‘BUNNT-CO’ project was aligned with the democracy-promoting and problem-solving moderation concept ‘Community Organising’. In the project modules ‘Community Organising I and II’, dialogue forums are being developed to enable solutions for more nature, environmental and climate protection to be found and jointly pursued between civil society and the administrations and politicians in Tunisia. 

In order to prepare the Tunisian project partners for these tasks, a series of additional project modules were designed in which the relevant qualifications were taught and the corresponding skills/competences developed. These are the modules ‘stocktaking’, ‘multiplier qualification’, ‘strategy conference’, method training I and II’ and an “interim evaluation”, from which the “snapshots” originate


As part of this, 40 dialogue forums (‘micro-projects’) were developed for the four governorates, which are successively carried out as dialogue forums in order to mobilise regional civil society for the goals of nature, environmental and climate protection. In four supra-regional dialogue forums, solutions for the problem areas of ‘protected areas’, ‘water supply’, ‘environmental protection and waste disposal’ and ‘desertification’ for Tunisia are being discussed and jointly pursued.

At the heart of the ‘BUNNT’ project was a network development process organised by associations (NGOs) from the governorates of Beja, Jendouba, El Kef and Siliana that are active in the fields of nature conservation and environmental protection.

In preparation for this organisational development process, exchange meetings were held in November and December 2018 - one in Tunisia to explore potential and one in Germany to explore existing networks here. A training course for NGO representatives was held in January 2019 to teach methods and tools for networking. With a future workshop in March 2019 and a strategy conference in June 2019, a network was formed under the provisional name ‘Northwest Tunisian Agency for Nature and Environmental Protection’ and formally adopted with the approval of a statute. The planned further development of this network could not be realised in a follow-up project from 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. This project could only be taken up again in 2023.

More than 70 participants registered for the strategy conference and spent an entire weekend working on common objectives and the upcoming tasks for the protection of nature and the environment in north-west Tunisia. At the end of the strategy conference, a network charter and a common vision were formulated, which were signed by 45 NGOs as founding members.
