396. The budget increase makes possible the realization of new major projects for the benefit of the cultural infrastructure, they are: • • • The City of Culture which contains several rooms for shows (Opera, Theatre, Music), a Multimedia Library, Exposition Galeries, A National Archive Office for Artistic Works, two large Cinema Projection rooms and National Civilizations Museum; The National Book Centre (The National Library of Tunis) which shows the importance accorded in Tunisia to the preservation of collective memory as a basic cultural right and means of communication between the generations; The technological pole for the Cinema Industry which is intended to be a supporting institution for the professionals of the private sector, both Tunisian and foreign, for the purpose of allowing picture artists in Tunisia to carry out their work in appropriate conditions and through the use of advanced technology. 397. In the matter of human rights linked to the participation in cultural life, Tunisia can therefore boast of a cultural space open to all Tunisians. III- The promotion and protection of morals and traditional humanistic values 398. The promotion and protection of morals and traditional humanistic values are necessary for societal equilibrium and for each of the citizens. It is a requirement for the resistance against all the expressions of extirpation and loss of self generated by a certain destructive globalization. It is in this regard that Tunisia made the protection of humanistic values an uninterrupted daily endeavour, which constantly requires Ijtihad and creativity in order to preserve its creativity and its aura. A) The values of solidarity, of mutual assistance, of tolerance for work and moderation 399. Article 5 of the Tunisian Constitution stipulates that « the State and Society shall work towards the firm implantation of the values of solidarity, of mutual assistance and tolerance between individuals, groups and generations». This constitutionalization of the fundamental human values carries a vocation which corresponds to Tunisia’s best values and to its firm establishment in universality. The political incidences of solidarity, of mutual assistance, of tolerance on the relationship between rights and responsibilities, between freedom and responsibility, as between individualism and the general interest, nationality and citizenship become a concrete and daily affair. 400. In this same perspective, Article 3 of the orientation law n° 2002-80 of 23rd July 2002, relative to education and school teaching establishes for the School a primary mission of implanting in the pupils « the set of values shared by all Tunisians and which are based on the primacy of knowledge, of work, of solidarity, of tolerance and moderation. It is guarantor of the establishment of a society which is deeply attached to its cultural identity, open to modernism and which takes inspiration from the humanistic ideals and universal principles of freedom, democracy, social justice and human rights ». 86
