MedSpring Euro-Mediterranean Observatories Meeting on Indicators
As highlighted in the previous MedSpring meetings, the way to observe and monitor trends in the main societal challenges in the region is still fragmented. Existing Euro-Mediterranean observatories are established as independent entities with little inter-alignment and linkages. This calls for the need to support cooperation of different monitoring/observation initiatives undertaken by relevant observatories operating in the Mediterranean.
This meeting aims at gathering Euro-Mediterranean observatories to discuss and agree a common list of monitoring indicators and enhance collaboration on a pilot initiative in the water sector, particularly water quality. The proposed indicators will not only be the basis for gaining insight of trends and scenarios in relation to a specific regional societal challenge (i.e.: water) but also for preparing a paper indicating the way forward for Euro-Mediterranean cooperation among different observatories.
The target audience of the White Paper on Euro-Med cooperation among Observatories is European Commission, national and local governments, business, the academic community and non-governmental organizations.
Deadline for registration: 15th August 2015.
