The Tunisian Observatory of the Economy (OTE)
Overview
The Tunisian Observatory of Economy seeks to provide guidance to citizens with regard to economic policies and their impact on development through independent, objective, documented and critical information. The singular nature of the procedure stems from the adoption of a multidisciplinary approach to economic policies (historical, geographical, geopolitical, social, legal, etc.). A comprehensive approach is undeniably essential in order to: unveil the roots of the shortcomings of the development model and adequately address them, carry out an analysis of the current situation.
This multidisciplinary and pluralistic approach is excluded from the economic policies’ debate in Tunisia.
The Observatory aims to democratize the economic issue and to foster a critical and constructive debate, accessible to a wider audience. The economic issue will no longer be exclusively monopolized by "technocratic" spheres. The Observatory consequently seeks to dispel the idea that economy is an exclusive technocrat or expert task. Accordingly every citizen can understand, act and participate in public policy making at the local or national level. Economic policies have a direct impact on Tunisian generations; they embody a political choice that can be debated, criticized, evaluated and undertaken. It is also a political choice for which the national authorities are accountable to their fellow citizens.
Furthermore, the Observatory is entitled to give its opinion on economic policies by: carrying out analysis reviews, undertaking investigations, developing recommendations and spearheading proposals.
However, we do not intend to achieve this goal by our own. We seek to contribute by: supplying a reference resource through critical and powerful insights, providing information and training opportunities, and generating synergies in order to support key stakeholders and institutions to respond to the development needs and the redistribution of wealth in Tunisia.
