Mobilizing Illiterate Tunisian Women Living in Rural Areas for the May 6 Municipal Elections
IFES' partner, the Tunisian Mediterranean Center (TU-MED), found that 83 percent of rural Tunisian women said they did not vote during the 2014 national elections. Due to these findings, IFES and TU-MED launched several outreach campaigns in 2017 targeting illiterate women living in rural areas. IFES trained 286 female outreach ambassadors to engage in face-to-face dialogue regarding the electoral process and the importance of decentralization. The ambassadors reached 7,680 women, encouraging them to register to vote in municipal elections scheduled for May 6, 2018.
