Introducing the TSTS

The Tunisian Science and Technology Society (TSTS) was formally established in September 1999 an independent, not-for-profit, non-government, non-political, scientific organization of Tunisians involved in science and technology. It remained dormant for 10 years due to the negative political atmosphere that reigned in Tunisia during that period. The January 14, 2011 Revolution of the Tunisian people gave renewed hope and motivation to the organization membership.
