The Union for the Mediterranean and its partners are pleased to invite representatives of civil society, youth organisations and non-state actors from the Euro-Mediterranean to join the UfM Regional Dialogue on “Shared views on key issues in the Mediterranean”, which will take place on 22-23 May 2019 in Barcelona.

These exchanges can contribute to the analysis of achievements and related challenges and the role different stakeholders (youth organizations, CSOs, institutions and international/regional agencies, …) play in promoting participation and opportunities to develop new projects and initiatives that tackle key issues in the Euro-Mediterranean. The regional dialogue’s key themes are:

  • economy and competitiveness
