Background, the Barcelona Declaration

The origin of the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership reaches back to the process initiated by the European Union in Barcelona in 1995 inspired by the global processes to enhance co-operation between the EU countries and the eastern and the southern countries of the Mediterranean Sea. The primary aim was the protection of the safety of the two regions and the economic development of the Mediterranean region. The Barcelona Declaration emphasizes the strategic importance of the Mediterranean region and of the co-operation and solidarity based on neighbourhood and shared history. The Anna Lindh Foundation has been established in order to enhance the dialogue between the cultures, ideologies and religions.
