Achievements and new challenges of the ENPI/ENI CBC Med Programme were discussed during the event, sponsored by the Italian Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
Enhanced cooperation among countries of the region under the new European Neighbourhood Instrument was highlighted as a contribution to a more integrated Mediterranean region, from the economic, political, social, and cultural points of view.
