Hello Dali -
Thank you for this message. So I know of three places where SignWriting will be presented or used in Tunisia:

1. l'Institut Superieur des Sciences Humaines de Tunis
http://www.issht.rnu.tn/ISSHT/anglais/presentation.htm

2. Tunisian Association of the Deaf

3. WebSign Sign Language Avatar Project
http://www.signwriting.org/tunisia/tunisia01.html

Project directed by Professor Mohamed Jemni
Ecole Supérieure des Sciences et Techniques de Tunis (ESSTT), University of Tunis

Professor Jemni's contact information is on this web page:
http://hebergcck224.rnu.tn/ws/_site/developper.php

I will send you what you need, Dali, and thank you for teaching and sharing with us -

Val ;-)
