Abstract
Pressures on water resources jeopardise reaching the UN-Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG6) for clean water and sanitation and Goal 13 (SDG13) for taking urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. Water resources management in Tunisia has been repeatedly confronted with the impact of climate change. The water monitoring capacity in Tunisia is often poor as a component of Water Quality Management. Citizen Science (CS) has been evolving last years as an innovative approach of environmental monitoring and capacity building of hydrosystems using smart and low cost-effective technologies as tools for data collection (Fehri et al., 2020a; Fehri et al., 2020b; Chaabane et al., 2021; Fehri, 2021; Slama, 2021). This factsheet is addressed to decision makers to involve Citizens in Water Quality Monitoring.
