The Center for Mediterranean Integration (CMI) and FEMISE announce the launch of the Call for a new joint Policy Brief series, to address the urgent issue of the COVID-19 socio-economic effects and impact on the EU-Mediterranean region<\/span><\/h2>\n

Marseille, 29th of May 2020 \u2013 The recent coronavirus crisis threatens the health, economies and societies of all countries. In Southern and Eastern Mediterranean countries, the fight against the pandemic is even more complicated due to pre-existing structural rigidities. Cooperation and EU-Med strategies in key sectors are needed. Therefore, the Center for Mediterranean Integration (CMI) and FEMISE join forces and launch their joint series of Policy Briefs called \u201cCOVID-19 MED BRIEFS\u201d. A Call for Policy Briefs is open for all researchers with interest and knowledge on the subject<\/strong>. The first issue of this series is available today, launching the joint initiative. <\/em><\/h4>\n

This series of Policy Briefs will be produced to make a contribution towards the policymaking process by addressing the economic, social and welfare effects of COVID-19 on the EU-Med and how Mediterranean integration can be reinforced in order to overcome the crisis and trigger further transformation in the region.<\/p>\n

The Call for the COVID-19 MED BRIEFS will include several rounds. The first round is now open and researchers have until June 26th<\/sup> to submit a Policy Brief<\/strong><\/span> for evaluation and potential selection.<\/p>\n

The topic should be addressing the issue of the COVID-19 socio-economic crisis and its implication on the EU-Med (short and medium run), and identifying concrete policy actions pointing to solutions and ways forward<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Information on how to submit and the General Guidelines for the \u201cCOVID-19 MED BRIEFS\u201d can be found here.<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n
