Two types of projects are targeted under this call: Thematic Community Projects (TCP) and Institutional Dialogue Projects (IDP). Each Programme’s mission and all the thematic projects operating under it will be supported by one Thematic community project and one Institutional Dialogue Project.
The Programme is calling for proposals to support a better coordination among different levels of policies to approach thematic issues and to increase the institutional capacity of Mediterranean authorities in engaging in transformative public policy, governance and cooperation.
The proposals will have to contribute as well to enhance the coordination between multi-level bodies, Programmes, strategies and initiatives in the Mediterranean. Two types of projects are targeted under this call: Thematic Community Projects (TCP) and Institutional Dialogue Projects (IDP).
Thematic Community Projects will aim at animating a community of projects to enable exchanges and synergies between projects and at favouring the technical transfer and mainstream of thematic projects’ results into the practices and policies of the Euro-MED territories.
Institutional Dialogue Projects will aim at supporting the work of transfer and mainstream of results into the practices and policies undertaken by the Thematic Community Projects on the Euro-MED territories by liaising activities and at improving the coordination with actors within and beyond the Euro-MED area.1.
Each thematic project will fall under one of the 4 specific objectives (SO) selected by the programme
1) Consolidating a competitive innovation ecosystem with 4helix stakeholders,
2) Supporting transition to a circular economy,
3) Improving the management of natural resources,
4) Preventing and mitigating risks, supporting energy transition and greener living areas
