The Secretariat of the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) proactively promotes regional, sub-regional, transnational projects (or national projects in the framework of regional strategies or initiatives) in the sectors falling within its mandate. While size and scope of the projects may vary – including both “soft” as well as infrastructure projects- they all share a strong political and economic relevance for regional cooperation and integration in the Mediterranean region.
Our goal is to create favourable conditions and enhance partnerships for effective mobilization around flagship initiatives and projects that help the region meet its common challenges towards sustainable and inclusive development for the benefit of the populations of the Mediterranean.
Projects can be submitted by national, regional and local authorities and public institutions, the private sector, international institutions, civil society organizations and consortia of such organisations.
