CELEBRANDO IL MEDITERRANEO

Questo 28 Novembre, unisciti a noi per la Giornata del Mediterraneo

CELEBRANDO IL MEDITERRANEO

La Giornata del Mediterraneo offre l'opportunità per promuovere gli scambi interculturali, celebrare la cooperazione, abbracciare la diversità e rafforzare i legami tra le nostre due sponde. Celebriamo la nostra identità condivisa, il patrimonio comune e l'amore per il Mediterraneo. Ci ricorda inoltre che le nostre somiglianze superano ampiamente le nostre diversità e che tutti condividiamo un'identità mediterranea. It is a reminder that our similarities largely overcome our differences and that we all share a Mediterranean identity

Il Mediterraneo, un viaggio attraverso i sensi

Alla domanda su cosa significhi per te il Mediterraneo, la risposta di ognuno sarà diversa, eppure è un richiamo ad un’identità condivisa. La musica e il cibo che possono evocare immediatamente piacevoli ricordi. Sedersi all’ombra di un ulivo o affacciarsi su uno dei tanti unici skyline in un momento di pace e connessione con la natura. Trascendendo culture e generazioni, le possibilità sono infinite.

Dunque, come ti senti? Quali dei tuoi sensi sono mossi da quell’unica parola: Mediterraneo?

Registra un breve video, condividi una foto o un post e raccontaci… Quali dei tuoi sensi sono stimolati da quella parola, Mediterraneo?
Non dimenticare di condividerlo sui social, taggando #MediterraneanDay
Vogliamo conoscere la tua opinione! Il tuo post/tweet sarà mostrato in questa pagina!

Il nostro Mediterraneo non solo vanta una varietà di siti del patrimonio culturale e una ricchezza di tradizioni senza precedenti a livello mondiale, ma è anche un hotspot di biodiversità e geodiversità ed ospita una moltitudine di habitat e specie unici.

Celebrare il Mediterraneo è celebrare la vita in tutta la sua ampiezza e pienezza. Questo mare, così antico, attorno al quale viviamo ha dato al mondo le sue più grandi civiltà, le sue prime accademie ed università, i suoi primi drammaturghi e filosofi e le sue più famose rotte commerciali.

La Giornata del Mediterraneo mira a creare un momento unico per mettere in luce le storie positive di cooperazione nella regione. Serve anche a ricordarci che condividiamo un’identità mediterrranea, poichè la dimensione culturale è una componente fondamentale di chi siamo e da dove veniamo.

Offre l’opportunità di lanciare progetti ed iniziative, nonchè di organizzare eventi e tavole rotonde, mostre e festival in tutta la regione per rafforzare i legami delle nostre sponde, promuovere gli scambi interculturali ed abbracciare le diversità.

Cosa posso fare?

Ognuno ha un ruolo da svolgere. Che tu sia un’organizzazione che opera nel campo della cooperazione, una pubblica amministrazione, un ente privato o un cittadino innamorato del Mediterraneo, puoi far parte del movimento!

When asked what the Mediterranean means to you, everyone’s answer will be different, and yet a reminder of a shared identity. The music and food that can immediately evoke fond memories. Sitting in the shade of an olive tree or looking out across any of the many unique skylines in a moment of peace and connection with nature. Transcending cultures and generations, the possibilities are endless.

So, how do you feel? Which of your senses are stirred by just that word, Mediterranean?

Le projet RISE vise à renforcer la résilience économique et les opportunités d’emploi pour les populations vulnérables au Maroc et en Tunisie. Tout en favorisant une croissance inclusive et la création d’emploi, le projet vise à améliorer les conditions institutionnelles, techniques, sociales et économiques pour une activité entrepreneuriale innovante. Il fournira des programmes personnalisés de développement des capacités professionnelles et d’entrepreneuriat, encouragera les réseaux et le dialogue entre les acteurs de l’écosystème des entreprises, soutiendra l’activité entrepreneuriale et renforcera les capacités des MPME pour faciliter la génération de revenus et la création d’emplois.

https://ufmsecretariat.org/fr/project...
https://ufmsecretariat.org/fr/ufm-gra...

Les micro, petites et moyennes entreprises (MPME) et les entreprises sociales (ES) jouent un rôle essentiel dans le développement économique au niveau local. Elles représentent une part importante du PIB et sont les principales contributrices à la création d’emplois et de richesses, à la génération de revenus et à la réduction de la pauvreté. Elles sont également au centre des efforts visant à atteindre une croissance plus inclusive et un emploi durable.

Les défis rencontrés à la création et la pérennisation d’une entreprise concernent notamment des exigences juridiques et administratives, complexes et coûteuses, le manque d’accès au financement, ainsi que les récentes conséquences de la pandémie de COVID-19.

Le projet s’adressera aussi aux obstacles à l’emploi que rencontrent les femmes et proposera des critères de ciblage personnalisés pour assurer que 50 % des bénéficiaires seront des femmes. La conception des activités et les retours garantiront l’inclusion de la parole des femmes, des jeunes et des minorités, telles que les réfugiés et personnes en situation de handicap.

The 1st Ministerial Meeting on Research and Innovation underlined 3 priorities: climate, energy and health. This year, we launched a new area of action, holding the 1st Conference on Disability and Social Inclusion.
Operational activities: the 1st Grant Scheme Employment helped develop 4 projects benefitting thousands in 7 States. The progress on the ground crystallized in a Mediterranean Pavilion, for the 1st time of the
climate negotiations. And at the end of the year, we welcomed North Macedonia, who joined us at the 7th UfM Regional Forum, in the framework of the celebrations of the Day of the Mediterranean.

Madrid, 30 November 2022. Co-organised by Womenpreneur Initiative with UfM, EBSOMED, and CAWTAR, the “Mediterranean Tech Women Network” (MTWN) Festival took place on 30 November 2022 in Madrid.

The technology sector ranks among the industries with the lowest share of women in leadership position, as well as the lowest share of women in the workforce composition. Hence the aim of the MTWN Festival was to provide a space for women in tech to learn, inspire, and connect.

Through Inspiring Talks and an Awards ceremony, the Festival highlighted powerful Mediterranean tech entrepreneurs, engineers, and innovators, and provided young women with role models. Panels and Q&As were also an opportunity to discuss recent technology trends, regional opportunities, and investment in entrepreneurship. Finally, the event was a golden opportunity for women in tech to connect and network.
