Cross-Border Cooperation: Algeria, Tunisia Continue Efforts to Develop,  Promote Border Zones

The technical commission tasked with evaluating the progress of the first session of the Algeria-Tunisia Joint Commission for the Development and Promotion of Border Zones has continued its work in Tabarka, Tunisia, on January 8, 2025. This follows the initial session held in Algiers in the previous year, where the two nations laid the foundation for strengthening cooperation in areas critical to border zone development, dzair electronic magazine reports.

The ongoing session in Tabarka saw a collaborative effort between the members of both delegations, with a focus on presenting the roadmap developed during the first commission session and assessing the implementation of the recommendations related to each Algerian and Tunisian border province. This meeting, which was supervised by senior officials from the ministries of the Interior of both countries, provided a platform for in-depth discussions on the status of border zone development projects.

The meeting was co-chaired by the Director General of Territorial Planning and Attractiveness from Algeria and the Director General of Regional Affairs from Tunisia. Their leadership was key in guiding the discussions and ensuring alignment with the mutual goals outlined in the initial agreements, the same source said.

The Algeria-Tunisia Joint Commission for the Development and Promotion of Border Zones was initially established as part of a broader effort to foster cooperation in vital areas such as trade, infrastructure, tourism, and environmental protection. The roadmap, which was developed during the first session in January 2024, sets a clear path for advancing these goals through tangible projects and shared strategies.
