Against the backdrop of the conflict in the Middle East and other critical issues such as alarming climate trends and widening socioeconomic disparities, the Union for the Mediterranean held an inclusive and participatory consultative session. Co-organised with the European Institute of the Mediterranean (IEMed) in the framework of the 30th anniversary of the Barcelona Process, the consultation addressed what the organisation’s future vision, priorities and mandate should be. Nimrod Goren participated in a session where participants discussed what the role of the UfM should be with regards to the post-conflict recovery process in Gaza.
