Abstract
The research analyzed modalities of young women’s engagement in politics in Tunisia and conditions for sustainability commitments over time. The research consists of a comparison between new and traditional forms of political participation. On the basis of the research results, recommendations are provided aiming to enhance young women’s political participation. It includes a summary highlighting the main results, outputs and outcomes of the research project activities. Regarding the very specific historical moment (characterised by social, political and economic transformations associated with “Arab Spring”) in Tunisia, Egypt and Sudan, the research was unwittingly positioned as timely.
