The objectives of the Water & Soil Conservation Project in Tunisia were to stop erosion by controlling flooding by the integrated management of the drainage basins, to use the quantities of water normally lost for the domestic, agricultural and other requirements of the local population and finally to protect downstream infrastructure from flooding and silting of major works. The project was applied to almost all regions of Tunisia and was implemented within the framework of the National Plan for Water and Soil Conservation in the year 2000. The Plan reviewed the use of surface water resources and integrated basin development schemes.
