IFG V Excursion to Sousse/Sfax/Kerkennah

An excursion was taken by members of IFG V Identities & Beliefs to Sousse, Sfax and Kerkennah in March 2022, to encounter social and political actors. This culminated in a series of essays that reflect on encounters at the UGTT headquarters and heritage spaces in the union’s geographical strongholds. The timing of the series’ appearance has proven serendipitous, as it coincided with a general strike declared by the UGTT for 16 June, in opposition to structural reforms proposed by the IMF.  In addition to an introductory essay written by Alyssa Miller and Arbia Selmi, stand-alone essays by Alyssa Miller, André Bank, Elizabeth Bishop, and Arbia Selmi have been posted on the #TRAFOBlog.
