Workshop
Strengthening Euro-Mediterranean Relations
The EuroMeSCo Secretariat, in collaboration with the Tunisian Association des études internationales (AEI), and with the support of the European Commission, organised the 1st Preparatory Meeting of the EuroMeSCo Annual Conference.
The meeting aimed at stimulating an initial debate on Euro-Maghrebian relations. Almost thirteen years after the Barcelona Conference, and two and a half years after the 2005 Summit, a number of key questions emerged during the discussions: what balance can be made of relations between the two shores of the Mediterranean and the institutional framework that underpins them? What does the future hold? How may we stimulate a new momentum within the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, in the face of its complex evolutions?
