The network of service providers includes for profit and non profit firms, experts and practitioners in the areas of media, communications, entrepreneurship, fundraising, campaigning, constitutional reform, rule of law, human rights and civil liberties, and women’s empowerment.
The online platform also serves as the MPDD website with activities held by GMF Tunis with CSO representatives and success stories featured online.
