Valorisation des circuits courts agroalimentaires en milieu urbain – Tunis & La Goulette
January 20, 2026

With nearly a third of global food production lost or wasted annually, the FAO supports solutions for resilient, equitable food systems. A key strategy involves short distribution circuits, connecting producers and consumers to encourage sustainable consumption.

In Tunisia, FAO aids Tunis and La Goulette municipalities in a strategy to prevent, reduce, and manage food loss. This includes a sustainable short distribution circuit, valorizing unsold produce via solar drying, vacuum packaging, and composting, alongside practical demonstrations.
