ISI@MED Strategic Workshop
Initiated and developed in 2009 by the UNDP offices in Geneva ISI@MED (Information Society Initiative for the Mediterranean) is now part of the Marseille Center for Mediterranean Integration (CMI).
ISI@MED aims at addressing development challenges through a territorial approach based on a range of services and innovative tools that rely on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Morocco and Lebanon are the two country-pilots for the first stage of implementation. On the second stage in 2011, ISI@MED will target Mauritania, Syria and Senegal.
ISI@MED - Strategic Workshop 2010 will allow partners to share information about countries' projects, their activities and progress in the pilot countries; present and discuss the good practices and lessons learned regarding the territorial approach and the innovative partnership with a focus on territory to territory triangular cooperation mechanisms. Finally participants to the workshop will jointly design the next phase of the initiative and its main expected results. Sectors

The Invest in Med programme aims at developing sustainable trade relationships, investments and enterprise partnerships between the two rims of the Mediterranean. Funded at 75% by the European Union over the 2008-2011 period, it is implemented by the MedAlliance consortium, which associates economic development organisations (ANIMA, leader of the programme), CCIs (ASCAME, EUROCHAMBRES), and business federations (BUSINESSMED). The members of these networks, as well as their special partners (UNIDO, GTZ, EPA Euroméditerranée, World Bank, etc.), gather a thousand of economic actors - mobilised through pilot initiatives centered on key Mediterranean promising niches. Each year, a hundred operations associate the 27 countries of the European Union and 9 Mediterranean partner countries: Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestinian Authority, Syria and Tunisia.
