Abstract

Tunisia is recognized in the Islamic and Arabic worlds as a progressive and modernizing country which is on a par with the advanced Western nations in terms of the ratio of woman in education. However, although the urban women are in a relatively favorable situation regarding educational opportunities, the rural woman remains restrained at a lower level with fewer opportunities. In this paper, the key factors of difference between urban and rural areas in receiving education is examined and clarified in terms of (1) household work, (2) economic situation, (3) distance to school, (4) mass media availability, and (5) custom.
