Day of the Mediterranean 2023 – Find the Mediterranean in your city

The Mediterranean will always be an essential element of those cities and countries bordering its sea. From the very obvious horizon where the sky meets the water, the recomforting sight of a palm tree or bougainvillea to the specific spices and flavours found in Mediterranean dishes, it is hard to escape the Mediterranean.

But if we push our search further – and farther – we will find out that small pieces of the Mediterranean’s heritage and culture can be found where nobody expects them to, even thousands of kilometers away from the shores of the Mare Nostrum. And these tokens can take many forms: street names honouring an important figure from the region, colourful mosaics and beautiful ruins of long-forgotten empires or food specialties inspired by human movements throughout History, you name it!

Will you help us find the Mediterranean in the most unexpected places?

Take a pictureand tell us… Where do you find the Mediterranean in your city?

Union for the Mediterranean

1 weeks ago

July 2023 marks a significant milestone for the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) as the organisations turns 15 years old.

Established in 2008 upon the values and achievements of the Barcelona Process, the UfM emerged from the collective efforts of the leaders of the European Union and the countries from the Southern and Eastern shores of the Mediterranean. It has since become a vital institutional framework for dialogue and cooperation in the region. Over the past decade and a half, the UfM has worked to drive regional inclusive sustainable development, foster dialogue, and address pressing regional challenges.

Since its inception, the UfM has actively undertaken a diverse range of initiatives aimed at promoting regional inclusive sustainable development and integration. The organization has championed women’s rights, job creation, enhanced connectivity efforts among countries and addressed environmental and climate emergencies. Through its commitment to evidence-based decision-making, the UfM has played a crucial role in equipping policymakers with the necessary tools to promote climate action in the region.

The UfM has also prioritised grant schemes and programmes to encourage entrepreneurship and job opportunities for young people, recognising their crucial role in shaping the region’s future.

Furthermore, the organisation is working on a unique instrument to accelerate investments in the blue economy and on the establishment of a regional instrument for civil protection. Embracing the cultural richness of the Euro-Mediterranean region, the UfM has launched, together with the Anna Lindh Foundation for the Dialogue Between Cultures, new initiatives to celebrate diversity, promote dialogue, and cultivate mutual understanding.

To date, the UfM adds up to more than 60 region-wide cooperation programmes, which have emerged from Agendas agreed upon by UfM countries over more than 30 Ministerial Meetings. UfM-supported projects and initiatives align with the regional priorities set by sectorial ministers and are further developed within various sectorial regional platforms, creating a unique framework of cooperation in the region.

The Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) hosted the Youth Engagement for a Sustainable Mediterranean, an event co-organised with Egypt’s Mediterranean Youth Foundation, in collaboration with the Anna Lindh Foundation, IEMED and Casa Mediterráneo and sponsored by GIZ. 100 young people from some 20 Euro-Mediterranean countries discussed how to promote youth involvement in three critical areas: the green and digital transitions, employment, and social inclusion. This forum for leaders, international and civil society organisations, and youths took place within the framework of the third edition of the Mediterranean Youth Academy, a four-day training programme from 6 to 9 November to involve young people in the response to these challenges.

Participants endorsed the UfM Youth Agenda: Call for Action, a set of proposals and recommendations for governments, international and regional organisations, and youth groups to reinforce the role of young people tackling major global challenges by 2030. Stemming from the quarterly working groups created following the adoption of the UfM Youth Strategy 2030 two years ago, the UfM Youth Agenda: Call for Action is structured around three (3) priority areas – Environment and Climate Action, Education and Employment, and Social Inclusion and Participation – and twelve (12) actionable steps. These include items such as establishing a grant scheme to address environmental challenges, supporting soft skill training programmes, or creating a regional youth policy dialogue framework. The document also serves as an advocacy paper to mobilise resources and generate greater political interest in youth-related activities. An overview of the Youth Agenda’s main points can be found here.

The fourth edition of the EU-UfM-African Development Bank Conference on Water Finance and Investments took place on 30 and 31 October as part of the Cairo Water Week. Water security is of utmost importance to the Euro-Mediterranean region and Africa: access to clean water, sustainable management, and the ability to combat droughts, floods, and water pollution are essential to their overall wellbeing and socioeconomic prosperity. These challenges were highlighted from a financial perspective at this event within the broader context of the interdependencies binding water to energy, food, and environmental sustainability — the WEFE nexus.

This year the Union for the Mediterranean and the European Union joined forces with the African Development Bank for the first time ever to organise the Conference on Water Finance and Investments in partnership with the Egyptian Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation and with support from the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency.

Close to 40 speakers, including government representatives from Albania, Egypt, France, Jordan, Malta, Morocco, Sweden and Türkiye, took part in the conference, as did the Minister of Water and Irrigation of Egypt, the Secretary General of the Jordanian Ministry of Water, the Director General of Water of Türkiye, the CEO of the Energy and Water Agency of Malta, and the Head of the EU in Egypt. International financial institutions also contributed to the discussion, particularly on how investment projects apply the Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems (WEFE) Nexus approach, delving into lessons learned by financial institutions such as the World Bank, the Islamic Development Bank and European development banks

The Union for the Mediterranean in collaboration with the Mediterranean Water Institute (IME), the World Water council, and in coordination with Spain and Tunisia discussed pressing water challenges in the region at the 5th edition of the Mediterranean Water Forum’s kick-off meeting on October 18 in Valencia (Spain). This took place with the aim of creating a robust platform for stakeholders to converge and strategize around complex water issues ahead of the full event in Tunis next February leading up to the 10th World Water Forum in Bali.

During the kick-off meeting, participants from diverse backgrounds, including water experts, policymakers, industry leaders, civil society groups, institutions, and other organisations discussed priority issues closely aligned with the 10th World Water Forum, emphasising themes such as the Water-Energy-Food-Environment (WEFE) nexus, new visions for water supply and demand by 2050, drought and flood prevention, water law and conflict resolution, sustainable water finance, and innovations in water use.

The meeting started with the welcoming remarks of Almotaz Abadi, Deputy Secretary General of the UfM in charge of Water, Environment and Blue Economy, Abdelmonem Belaati, the Minister of Agriculture, Water Resources and Fisheries of Tunisia, Leila Chikhaoui, the Minister of Environment of Tunisia (via video message) alongside Alain Meyssonnier, IME President and Loïc Fauchon, President of the World Water Council, and Sabina Galindo, the Director General of Water in València Region, as well as the Director General of Water, Teodoro Estrela, from the Government of Spain, with many representatives of the water sector and private sector from Spain and France; Italy Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Portugal, Malta and other countries.

Working groups organised around these themes held in-depth discussions allowing participants to share diverse perspectives and insights as well as to underscore the acute need for effective responses to ensure water security, especially in a region where demographic trends, socio-economic challenges, and the effects of climate change have a profound impact on water management. Also, it was highlighted the need to focus on connecting water with green and blue agenda with special emphasis on investment and private sector roles.

Participants also explored perspectives on water management tailored to local needs and identified best practices and technologies that could serve as answers to the region’s water security challenges.

Experts, stakeholders, and policymakers united with a shared commitment to finding sustainable solutions to the Mediterranean’s water challenges and to further develop concept notes on the upcoming Mediterranean Water Forum’s different themes.

11-12 October, 2023, Tunis. This year’s edition of the Women Business Forum, co-organised by the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), addressed the pivotal role of women entrepreneurs in the MENA region amidst the emerging industrial and digital transformations.

It was conducted through a full-day conference, training and brainstorming sessions, as well as a field visit organised with the support of Euro-Mediterranean Arab Association (EMA) to witness the successful experience of Actifs Précieux, a start-up founded by Hajer Derouiche, one of the beneficiaries of the UNIDO PWE project in the bio-cosmetic value chain.

It examined the impact of Industry 4.0 on women in manufacturing and related sectors, while also strategizing ways to empower women economically and foster their leadership skills in the Industry 4.0 era.

Additionally, the forum discussed models and good practices for enabling women to assume leadership roles in innovative fields like AI, Energy, Circular Economy, ICT, and Digitalisation.

The event brought together various high-level attendees from the Tunisian government, international donors and the EU Delegation to Tunisia, as well as different regional and national stakeholders, and female entrepreneurs from across the MENA region. There were 150 participants at the event in person in Tunis in addition to a hundred guests who followed it online.

11-12 October 2023, Tunis. The UfM-UNIDO Women Business Forum 2023 will take place on 11-12 October in Tunis, Tunisia and will provide the opportunity to explore the thematic of empowering Women in Industry and Innovation, by specifically analysing the impacts of Industry 4.0 on female workers and entrepreneurs within the manufacturing sector. Participants will discuss which models and good practices should be disseminated to ensure women are empowered to achieve a strong leadership role in innovation sectors, including as entrepreneurs, and fostering a change of behaviour towards women in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics).

Building on 7 years’ of experience in dialogue with women entrepreneurs, national women business organisations, international leading organisations and business support schemes from the Euro-Mediterranean region, the UfM Women Business Forum (WBF) is an annual regional platform that offers female entrepreneurs and women-led businesses a unique opportunity to grow their business to the next level by learning from successful and innovative business models, and building business relations and professional networks. In its last editions, the UfM Women Business Forum has benefited from a successful cooperation with UNIDO.

While the Industry 4.0 revolution is creating opportunities for new and greener productive models, women entrepreneurs in the MENA region seem to be little aware of those offered by new technologies. According to a UNIDO survey conducted among 1418 women entrepreneurs in the manufacturing sector in Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, State of Palestine, and Tunisia in 2019-2020, the respondents demonstrated a very limited knowledge of Industry 4.0 (62% indicating little or no familiarity) and related concepts. The same survey indicated that only one quarter of surveyed women entrepreneurs utilize digital technologies at some stage in the product design, manufacturing and selling processes of their businesses. Yet, access to technology tends to foster entrepreneurship. Today, successful entrepreneurship requires digital skills along with the drive for innovation and sustainability.

The Euro-Mediterranean region boasts a rich and diverse heritage, shaped by centuries of cultural exchange. A melting pot of different languages, traditions and customs, the region shares a heritage and a deep sense of identity and belonging. Today, this cultural legacy continues to inspire and inform our shared values and aspirations, reminding us of the importance of building bridges and fostering understanding between cultures.

In that spirit, the 43 Member States of the Union for the Mediterranean launched the “Mediterranean Capitals of Culture & Dialogue” initiative during their 7th Regional Forum in November 2022.

Based on the call of Ministers of Culture of the Euro-Mediterranean region on 17 June 2022 in Naples, as well as the recommendation of more than 200 young representatives from the civil society of over 20 countries at the Forum des Mondes Méditerranéens on 7 February 2022 in Marseille, this initiative was shaped to further promote the diversity and shared identity of the Euro-Mediterranean region and contribute to a better mutual understanding of its peoples.
