The Mediterranean, a journey through the senses

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?

Shoot a short video, share a picture or a post and tell us… Which of your senses are stirred by just that word, Mediterranean?

Union for the Mediterranean

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.

The UfM held its 4th Meeting of the UfM Community of Practice on Youth Employment in the Southern Mediterranean on 11-12 July 2023 in Madrid with the support of the German Development Cooperation and the European Commission, bringing together experts from the both shores of the Euro-Mediterranean region in an effort to collect, discuss, assess and disseminate experiences and good practices inter alia in supporting decent job creation as well as quality education systems and training, skills and employability.

The Meeting started with a presentation by the European Training Foundation (ETF) on Youth Transition in the Mediterranean with a focus on skills mismatch and the future of work. Focused panels that followed were dedicated to cooperation between the Private Sector, the Public Sector and Academia to bridge the skills gap, as well as gender-related aspects, with a focus on skills for young women to enter the labour market. The Meeting employed breakout group discussions, as well as a Practical Workshop on Skills on the second day, in preparation for the UfM High-Level Meeting on Skills in the Mediterranean.

The 4th UfM Meeting of the UfM Community of Practice on Youth Employment in the Southern Mediterranean preceded the UfM High-Level Meeting on Skills in the Mediterranean which took place in Madrid on 12 July 2023 back-to-back with the CoP Meeting. Both meetings form part of the UfM Roadmap for Employment and Labour 2022-2025 following the 2022 UfM Ministerial on Employment and Labour in Marrakech, Morocco.

The UfM Energy and Climate Business Forum is a milestone in the promotion of the private sector role towards local authorities’ efforts in the energy transition as well as in their climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies. Mediterranean countries face today common challenges that require a high level of multilateral responses and collective actions. Private sector development as well as a reinforced cooperation in the energy and climate action fields is needed and represents an opportunity for both shores of the Mediterranean to achieve integration, social and economic development in the region.

The objective of the 3rd UfM Energy and Climate Business Forum is two-fold:

I. to support and showcase local authorities’ efforts towards a sustainable energy transition, by providing a networking space and promoting innovative and tangible financing solutions, as well as private investment and public-private partnerships in the Euro-Mediterranean region.

II. to offer a high-level platform for solution developers from public and private sectors and academia dealing with local authorities’ challenges in energy efficiency, renewable energy and climate change.

This year, the 3rd UfM Energy & Climate Business Forum, is organized by the Secretariat of the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM), in cooperation with the Confédération Générale des Entreprises du Maroc (CGEM), the Mediterranean Climate House and the Tangier-Tétouan-Al Hoceima region, with the with financial support from the government of Sweden.

The 3rd UfM Energy and Climate Business Forum aims to showcase innovative and tangible financing solutions, private investment and public‑private partnerships in the Euro‑Mediterranean region oriented to local authorities’ efforts in achieving a sustainable energy transition and in facing climate change challenges. The Forum will bring together high-level government representatives, stakeholders, private sector investors, companies and service providers, business representatives, international financial institutions, alongside woman-led and youth-led green business, with the aim of identifying business and networking opportunities and enhancing exchanges on regional best practices.

This year the Business Forum is organized at the margins of MedCoP Climate, taking place on the 22 and 23 of May, and to which you are also invited to attend. The relaunch of the MedCoP process is a major lever for structuring the cooperation framework between the countries of the two shores and an occasion to facilitate a regional stock take exercise ahead of CoP28 in Dubai.

The previous editions of the Business Forum: the 1st Business Forum was held in Cairo in 2017 and the 2nd Business Forum on Lisbon in 2019.

Acting upon pertinent Ministerial Declarations and anchoring to the “UfM Youth Strategy 2030: Euro-Mediterranean Youth towards a Common Goal”, the UfM Secretariat partnered with the German Development Cooperation to hold the UfM Conference on Youth Employment and the Future of Work in the Albanian capital Tirana on 13 June 2023 under the auspices of the Ministry of Finances and Economy of the Republic of Albania, with a focus on youth-led organisations and networks, national and regional youth support programs, as well as entrepreneurial skills for the future. The event was co-sponsored by the European Union and benefitted from the active engagement of the European Delegation of the European Union to Albania and the Young Professionals Network (YPN).

The Conference, which brought together 60 participants, forms part of the UfM Roadmap on Employment and Labour 2022-2025, implementing the 2022 Marrakech UfM Ministerial Declaration. Among the key messages expressed by the panelists were the need to invest in an enabling ecosystem conducive to the emergence of innovative startups, and the importance of tackling the triple challenge cited by most of these startups, namely the need for funding, know-how and network. They stressed the fact that the young generation(s) now think differently, and that, in addition to being more flexible and tech-savvy, they are already mentalized to embrace a career of transitory stations, as opposed to the one-employer-career model that is becoming obsolete. They cited green, blue and digital skills as the most pertinent, and also insisted on the ameliorating value of soft and transferable skills.

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?

The theme of the International Women’s Day (IWD) 2022 - Changing Climates: Equality today for a sustainable tomorrow - recognizes and celebrates the contribution of women and girls to building a sustainable future. The gender and climate change nexus will also be at the core the sixty-sixth session of the Commission for the Status of Women, which will focus on the priority theme: Achieving gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls in the context of climate change, environmental and disaster risk reduction policies and programmes.

CIHEAM, FAO and UfM share a commitment to promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment in agri-food systems, and to creating a conducive environment for women and girls to lead and thrive. Their common commitment is also reflected in a Memorandum of Understanding, signed in 2020, which led to the establishment of a multi-stakeholder initiative on Sustainable Food Systems in the Mediterranean (SFS-MED).

The project ‘Making Water Cooperation Happen in MENA: Piloting Tangibles’, aka MENA Water Matchmaker 2 project, aims to provide Jordan and Palestine with tangible and scalable solutions in order to improve water management and build resilience to climate change through the application of the Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems Nexus (WEFE) approach.

The project’s main objective is to prove, through piloting, the integrated concept of applying WEFE Nexus technical solutions at local level while capacitating beneficiary groups on employment options, offering measurable and scalable contributions for further application in other MENA countries.

At the core of the MENA Water Matchmaker 2 project is the implementation of two demonstrable and scalable technical WEFE Nexus interventions combined with employability/entrepreneurship capacitation activities, benefiting Jordan and in Palestine, through across-country approach and towards regional benefits for MENA countries. For Jordan, Wadi Shuayb was chosen to be the area to implement the project activities and Wadi Sa’ir for Palestine.

The project also includes screening of options for further application of WEFE Nexus technical solution (replication, scalability, new), networking and knowledge management, part of which is the current Capacity Development Course on WEFE Nexus.

The project ‘Making Water Cooperation Happen in MENA: Piloting Tangibles’ (MENA Water Matchmaker 2) is funded by Sweden’s government agency for development SIDA and the UfM and implemented by GWP-Med.

As part of the project’s main objectives to combine local technical solutions with employability and entrepreneurship capacity development, a Capacity Building Course on Institutionalising Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems Nexus in MENA (with focus on Jordan, Palestine and Lebanon) will be held on between 7 and 9 May in Amman.

The Tafila Wind Farm, owned and developed by the Jordan Wind Project Company, was at its inception a one-of-a-kind project and the first of its kind for its home country, Jordan, but also for the wider Middle Eastern region. Behind this project is an affable businessman, Mr. Samer Judeh, a visionary leader who has been instrumental in driving the wind farm’s success. With silver hair and a permanent smile, his approachable demeanour can easily make one forget that Samer was a pioneer in building the renewable energy industry in Jordan.<br /><br />Visit our website to know more about the UfM:

There is no development without security and no security without development. It is crucial to strengthen the security-development nexus in order to create the appropriate environment conducive to socio-economic development and to address in a comprehensive and balanced manner the challenges of the region. Because of its geographical composition, institutional governance and working methodology, the UfM is the ideal organisation for taking into account the priorities of both the EU – as reflected in the reviewed ENP and the Global Strategy on Foreign and Security Policy – and the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean countries.<br /><br />The impact of UfM activities on regional stability through their connection with the development dimension are an important parameter of the region’s overall well-being. By concentrating all efforts on two main pillars of action, fostering human development and promoting regional sustainable development, UfM projects and initiatives contribute to regional stability and regional integration, be it, for example, through the cross-sectorial flagship on job creation initiative Med4Jobs or as a result of the socio-economic impact of strategic infrastructure and innovative urban development projects through the Urban Projects Finance Initiative (UPFI).<br /><br />Visit our website to know more about the UfM:

Il n’y a pas de développement sans sécurité, ni de sécurité sans développement. Il est essentiel de renforcer l’interaction entre le développement et la sécurité afin de créer un environnement propice au développement socio-économique et de répondre d’une manière complète et équilibrée aux défis de la région. Du fait de sa composition géographique, de sa gouvernance institutionnelle et de sa méthodologie de travail, l’UpM est l’organisation idéale pour prendre en compte aussi bien les priorités de l’UE, telles qu’elles sont reflétées dans le réexamen de la PEV et la stratégie globale pour la politique étrangère et de sécurité, que celles des pays du Sud et de l’Est de la Méditerranée.<br /><br />L’impact des activités de l’UpM sur la stabilité régionale grâce à leur lien avec la dimension du développement est un paramètre important du bien-être global de la région. En concentrant tous leurs efforts sur les deux principaux piliers d’action, encourager le développement humain et promouvoir le développement durable régional, les projets et initiatives de l’UpM contribuent à la stabilité et à l’intégration régionales, par exemple grâce à l’Initiative Med4Jobs pour la création d’emplois, projet phare intersectoriel, ou à l’Initiative pour le financement de projets urbains (UPFI), qui comprend des projets de développement urbain innovants et dont les infrastructures stratégiques ont un fort impact socio-économique.<br /><br />Visit our website to know more about the UfM:

Urban and spatial planning needs to increasingly consider preparedness and resilience as a determinant of public health at the local level. Climate change, inadequate urbanization patterns and environmental degradation have left many cities vulnerable to disasters such as extreme weather events, chemical accidents, floods, earthquakes, power cuts, pandemics, or forest fires.<br /><br />Much can be done at the city level by local authorities, planners and managers to apply urban planning and design as an instrument to reduce risks and vulnerabilities and build resilience. This webinar aims to reflect on the different dimensions of local preparedness and resilience, and discusses the experiences and potential actions that can be taken by national and local governments to establish and support preparedness and resilience at local scale.<br /><br />Visit our website to know more about the UfM:
