The Mediterranean Oases in Tunisia: Acting for a Plastic-Free Sea

The Mediterranean Oases in Tunisia: Acting for a Plastic-Free Sea

This project aims to mobilize and raise awareness on plastic pollution in municipalities of the oases of Gabès to create a waste management plan. Meanwhile, a competition will be organized among craftsmen and small businesses to create a prototype of packaging based on date palm waste. By seeking to replace plastic with a more sustainable material, this project also contributes to improving the management of date palm waste often considered as a burden for all stakeholders in these oases.
