The IEMed convenes a two-day consultation on the New Pact for the Mediterranean, in partnership with the Policy Center for the New South in Rabat.

Organised within the framework of the a year-and-a-half-long project co-funded by the EU to contribute to the reflection process for the new Pact for the Mediterranean, the IEMed, acting as the Secretariat of the EuroMeSCo network of think tanks, this event is offering a space for exchanging ideas and strategic perspectives with key stakeholders from North Africa, in view of shaping the forthcoming European Union’s main political framework for strengthening cooperation with its Southern Neighbourhood partners.

This consultation aims to ensure that the voices and priorities of regional actors are meaningfully reflected in the design of the Pact and its implementation. The dialogue will focus on three strategic dimensions critical to the region’s future: fostering economic growth through trade, investment and stronger engagement with the private sector; empowering youth by aligning skills development with employment and mobility opportunities; and promoting sustainable transitions through climate-sensitive approaches to agriculture, water management, and environmental resilience.

Drawing on local expertise, successful practices and real-world insights, the consultation will contribute to anchoring the Pact in the realities of the Southern Neighbourhood, and aligning it with the aspirations of both shores of the Mediterranean.
