On 14 June, during the Tunisian School of Politics held in Hammamet, experts from the Parliamentary Forum for Democracy (PFD) shared theoretical and practical knowledge of transitional justice, and introduced to the concepts of the civil society and democratic political system. The participants of the training included representatives of Tunisian political parties and non-governmental organizations.
