The coordinating framework for organizations announces a national march in the Tunisian capital

The Coordinating Framework for National Organizations and Civil Society Components announced the organization of a national peaceful march in the Tunisian capital on 17 December 2026. The call for the participation of nine national and civil organizations came to express a strong rejection of the 2027 Finance Bill, and to protest the economic and social choices that followed.

The Coordination Framework affirmed in a statement issued on Thursday 12 November 2026 that the bill continues to load procedures, popular classes and vulnerable groups at the cost of the current economic crisis. The statement held the existing authority fully responsible for deepening the country's economic and social crisis, criticizing it alone for formulating financial options and defining new tax measures.

Participating organizations called for the need to review the tax options offered and work to protect citizens' purchasing power, along with approving increases that ensure better wages.

The announced field move aims to directly address the economic and social choices made by the authorities, amid rising trade union and civil objections to the tax measures contained in the forthcoming Finance Bill, and pressure towards public policy reforms ahead of the planned move in the capital next month.
