Mohamed Thameur Chaibi is a Tunisian professor of Rural Engineering at the National Research Institute for Agricultural Engineering. Early life and education
Chaibi obtained his Engineering diploma in Rural Development with honours from the High School of Rural Equipment in Tunisia in 1984, before specialising in Hydraulic and Rural Engineering at the National Agronomic Institute of Tunisia in 1987. In 1992, he obtained a postgraduate diploma from the Netherlands International Institute for Management. Then he received a Master of Science degree in Agriculture Bio-systems and technologies from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in 1997. Chaibi completed his Doctor of Philosophy in Agriculture and Climate Technologies at the same university in 2003, before returning to Tunisia in 2005, and hablitate in Environmental Sciences at the Institution for Agricultural Research and High Education. Career and research 
Chaibi was the Head of the Department of Rural Engineering at the National Research Institute for Agricultural Engineering, Water and Forestry (INRGREF). He was a GIZ Senior advisor for the Pan African University Institute of Water and Energy Sciences, and a senior expert in S&T at the African Union Commission. He is currently a professor and a director of research at the INRGREF  and a member of the editorial board of Resources and Environment. Chaibi served in various capacities as an associate member of the Environmental Security panel under the NATO Science for Peace and Security and the European Commission Frameworks Programs. Chaibi research focuses on solar thermal processes, solar desalination, energy systems analysis, climate technologies, and water resources engineering. Awards and honours 
Chaibi was elected a Fellow of the African Academy of Sciences (FAAS) in 2006, a Fellow o The World Academy of Sciences (FTWAS) in 2009, and a Fellow of the Islamic World Academy of Sciences (FIAS) in 2016. He was a member of the Governing Council of the African Academy of Sciences (North Africa Region) in 2010. Selected publications
