Urban development in the new Yasminet neighborhood on the southern outskirts of the city. Sidi Bouzid: A Look Back 10 Years After the Revolution. Ten years ago, on December 17, 2010, Mohamed Bouazizi, a young unemployed man and street vendor selling vegetables, set himself on fire in front of the governorate building in the city center. This marked the beginning of protests by union members across the region—the start of the Tunisian revolution, which culminated on January 14, 2011, in the ousting of the dictatorial President Ben Ali and his family. “Work, Freedom, and Dignity”—these three words from the 2010 revolutionaries’ slogan are still chanted today in the streets of Tunisia.
