15. Description: The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) is supporting the efforts of the Government of Tunisia (GoT) to develop a compact program, with the overall objective of reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth. The compact, currently under development, aims to improve the business climate, in regards to administrate and regulatory procedures, as well as the supply of water as it relates to economic growth in regions of water scarcity. As part of compact development, MCC requires specialized services to conduct a focused agribusiness commercial, legal and institutional reform (AgCLIR) diagnostic in order to better understand the enabling environment for agribusiness in Tunisia. The diagnostic will identify specific policy and regulatory reforms and identify potential interventions that the compact might support.
