- January 2011 Tunisians overthrew long-time autocrat Zine el-Albidine Ben Ali. This sets off a chain of political upheaval.
- As Tunisia works to rebuild their governments signs of change are evident across the country.
- Tunisians must repair the disparity that divides their country between well-resourced coastal provinces and an undeserved rural interior.
- This affects economic development, political representation and education.
- Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) has been playing a huge role in Tunisian affairs. This extends to taking a whole country and making their thoughts and opinions localized, in many ways it unites the country of Tunisia.
- With the collapse of the old regime many people reach out to be apart of the new government system. This can result in greatness and also potential destruction.

- Tunisia's political ecosystem has been quickly populated by an explosion of political parties, with platforms and ideologies as diverse as Tunisia itself.
- University leadership, students and business leaders highlight significant gaps in the quality of instruction and infrastructure.
- Tunisia needs and desires to develop a globally competitive knowledge economy.
- Tunisia has a strong foundational infrastructure upon which to improve higher education systems.
- A challenge Tunisia faces is to bolster the interior provinces, which economic progress is stymied by insufficient educational resources compared to coastal/wealthier provinces.
- Small business and entrepreneurship have the ability to be the back bone of Tunisia's economy.
- Challenges however could extend to but not limited to elevated costs of doing business, government control of critical markets and skill deficiencies in the work force.
