Tunisia

According to the 2022 constitution, Tunisia is a presidential republic with a bicameral parliament, but most powers are concentrated in the presidency. International and domestic observers assessed that the last parliamentary elections were well-administered technically but lacked legitimacy and fell short of international standards. Official election observers generally agreed that the country’s second democratic presidential election in 2019 had no widespread fraud, violence, or attempts to undermine the credibility of the results. The government took some credible steps to address impunity or reduce abuses, but human rights groups frequently asserted that investigations into abuses by police, security forces, and detention center officials lacked transparency and encountered long delays and procedural obstacles.

The overall score indicates that there are substantial risks of potential human rights violations in this country. This may also include the tourism sector. Relevant risks for the tourism sector are, e.g.:
  • Child labor
  • Threats of violence against LGBTQI+ persons
  • Criminalization of consensual same-sex sexual conduct between adults

For better comparability, we have converted the original scores of the indices to a uniform scale of 1-100 (1 most negative, 100 most positive).

In the following table you find these recalculated values and the original score in brackets behind them.

The Overall Score is the geometric mean of all converted values for each country. It is subcategorized in five risk categories with colour gradations that can be seen in the map.
