Rural Areas And Water Stress In Tunisia

Rural women fill plastic cans with water at a drinking water point in the isolated rural area of Chrichira located in Kairouan, Tunisia, on May 8, 2024. As the region faces water stress, resulting in water shortages and frequent water cuts that can last for several days at a time, local inhabitants are forced to fetch water from far away, and it is women who take on this task.
