Tunisia25 years later: How do young people perceive the Barcelona Process?
In the framework of the 25th anniversary of the Barcelona process, the “Regional Program Political Dialogue South Mediterranean” of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (PolDiMed), in partnership with the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM), is co-organising a 90-minute online meeting on 10 December to discuss youth perceptions on the Barcelona Process.
The event aims as well at highlighting some ongoing initiatives that are implemented under the umbrella of the UfM. This virtual meeting will bring together young speakers from both shores of the Mediterranean.
