Also, it's been five years since the passing of a law aimed at improving transport for agricultural workers in Tunisia. Women, who make up almost 80 per cent of the workforce, say that conditions remain brutal. Farmers claim that employers continue to cram workers into unsafe trucks, turning already dangerous roads into deadly traps. The work itself is gruelling and poorly paid.

Already listed as part of the national cultural heritage, the event hopes to join the UNESCO World Heritage List.
