What impacts does Euro-Mediterranean cooperation have on the Tunisian university sphere? What role does the Virtual University of Tunisia play?

In 2004, the European Neighborhood Policy was created to launch own resources for the region. In 2007, the Union for the Mediterranean consolidated the dialogue between the European Union and the countries of the southern Mediterranean.
