The Saudi Ministry of Sport and Tunisia's Ministry of Youth and Sports have signed an executive program for cooperation in youth and sports for 2025-2026.

The program was signed on Wednesday in Tunis by Saudi Deputy Minister for Sports and Youth Affairs Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al-Massad -- on behalf of Minister of Sport Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki bin Faisal -- and Tunisian Ministry of Youth and Sports Chief of Staff Chokri Ben Hassen, in the presence of Tunisian Minister of Youth and Sports Sadok Mourali and the Saudi Ambassador to Tunisia, Dr. Abdulaziz bin Ali Al-Saqr.

The two-year program aims to enhance cooperation in youth and sports, promote exchange visits for leaders and youth and sports delegations across related fields, and share successful experiences between sports federations, sports and youth administrations, and sports committees. It will also support coordination for training programs, workshops in sports media, and participation in conferences and scientific symposiums.

The agreement reflects the deep historic relations between Saudi Arabia and Tunisia and aligns with the ongoing efforts of the Ministry of Sport to strengthen international relations and cooperation with various sports entities, including the Tunisian Ministry of Youth and Sports, fostering the exchange of expertise and knowledge in youth and sports between the two nations.
