Tunisia Regional integration: towards an inclusive value chain strategy in the Mediterranean
The UfM and the German Development Cooperation co-organised the Online UfM Conference on Regional Integration and Regional Value Chains. The Conference focused on two thematics of paramount importance for the Mediterranean, namely “Economic Integration in times of crisis” and “What does a Green Transition mean for regional value chains?”
The Conference brought together representatives of several regional and international organisations, think tanks and NGOs, in addition to representatives of the Maltese business community.
Among the key messages emanating from the discussion was the need for better regulatory conversion within and between the different sub-regions, the importance of engaging the civil society early on in the dialogue, the relevance of an integrated approach that takes into consideration gender and environmental values, and the damage caused by restrictions on mobility of people between and within both shores of the Mediterranean. The panelists also called for a more active role for the UfM in promoting energy integration in terms of connectivity and policy harmonization.
