OUR LATEST NEWS

The world in general, and Tunisia in particular, is witnessing an important historic event this week: the departure of the ships of the Summud Flotilla to break the siege on Gaza. It was an honor for us that a large number of participants set sail from Tunisian ports. Despite the obstructions and attacks carried out by the sionist entity against two ships docked in the port of Sidi Bou Said, these two assaults did not deter our heroes, both men and women, from moving forward to achieve this fleet's goal: to break the siege on the Palestinian people and deliver humanitarian aid to alleviate the severity of the starvation being used as a weapon of war by the occupation. We salute all the participants, both men and women, and we firmly grasp their hands, especially our comrades, brothers and sisters. Glory to the Palestinian people, and shame and disgrace upon the occupation and its agents.

The Mental Health of LGBTQIA+ Individuals in Tunisia: Needs, Perceived Accessibility, and Quality of Services

The Mental Health of LGBTQIA+ Individuals in Tunisia: Needs, Perceived Accessibility and Quality of Services, is a research project presented by the Mawjoudin initiative for equality. Our study aims to explore the psychological needs, accessibility challenges, and perceived quality of mental health services for individuals with non-normative sexual orientations and gender identities in Tunisia. We aspire to contribute to more targeted interventions and inclusive policies for better integration of everyone's psychosocial well-being.
