MED – Mediterranean Dialogues builds upon five pillars: Shared Security, Shared Prosperity, Human Dimension, Power of Narratives and Culture for Peace. Debates on these topics aim to complement analyses of current challenges with new ideas and suggestions to enhance regional stability, foster economic prosperity, and promote cultural dialogue.
Shared Security
Discussions within the “Security” pillar explore new ideas and strategies to prevent socio-political and security instability, foster cooperation on issues of common interest, and promote collaborative approaches to complex geopolitical problems.
Shared Prosperity
Within the “Prosperity” pillar, emphasis is placed on the role that economic elites, business communities, the public and private sectors, as well as civil society actors can play in fostering prosperity and growth across the Mediterranean region, which is abundant with promising opportunities.
Human Dimension
The “Human Dimension” pillar engages discussion on aspects of policies, decisions and events that have direct implications for the rights, freedoms, and well-being of individuals, highlighting the central role of human life and dignity in international actions and policymakers’ decisions.
Power of Narratives
The “Power of Narratives” pillar explores how to understand and shape the narratives that influence politics, identity, and perceptions in the Mediterranean, from traditional media to social platforms, from cinema to literature, and from propaganda to historical memory.
Culture for Peace
The “Culture for Peace” pillar allows the promotion of culture as a tool for peace, cooperation, and the rebuilding of ties in a region marked by conflict, division, and social fractures, while recognizing the Mediterranean as a unique “melting pot.”
