The Anna Lindh Foundation and the Mediterranean Universities Union (UNIMED) prepare to launch the Call: “#Covid-19: Euro-Mediterranean Dialogue and Cooperation must continue”. This call aims to gather the voice of civil society organisations, universities, international organisations and governments to assert the importance, invest and do more for the promotion of Euro-Mediterranean cooperation and intercultural dialogue to fight any cultural prejudice and closure it could produce in people’s mind.

In the midst of the current and unexpected pandemic, the Anna Lindh Foundation and UNIMED are committed to build a coalition of actors calling for increased cooperation and intercultural dialogue and exchange across the Euro-Mediterranean region.

Both organisations invite all interested organisations to write to the email nostopeuromeddialogue@gmail.com to express their interest in joining this ALF/UNIMED effort. By end of April, they will be sharing a draft joint Call to be discussed, approved, disseminated and sent to all decision-makers in the Euro-Mediterranean region on behalf of all the members of this initiative.
