He narrates his own involvement with civil society since he was a student, as well as the revolution, the formation of the Quartet of the National Dialogue, and the challenges faced by its members. He recalls the part of the transition before the technocratic government was appointed, during which the Quartet was instrumental in facilitating the collaboration of political parties that were hostile to each other. Ben Moussa reflects on democracy and the importance of democratic institutions. He insists on the necessity of a cultural revolution that would emphasize values such as work and education. He also warns that it is necessary to address economic issues. All of this will ensure that the revolutionary process is successful and avoid another revolution. He describes receiving the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of the Quartet</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
