633. Tunisia has, in effect, embarked deeply in modernism and universality with
certain challenges to be taken on from the point of view of the youth, of
employment, of sustainable development or even of globalization. The issues of
training, of higher education and employability are crucial. Therefore, what is
expected of tomorrow’s school/university is in fact a response which Tunisia has
ceaselessly formulated by organizing national consultative meetings with all the
nation’s resources. Therein exist challenges for the development of the society,
and which call for the reflection, more and more, in terms of acquisition of
cognitive competences, on the manner of thinking and less and less in terms of
content. Thus, the perspectives of employment and the benefits of productivity
can and should result in positive elements such as the extension of the fields of
activity, the increasing of investments and of job opportunities, the raising of
qualifications, technical excellence, competitivity and social justice.
