EUMEDIS Focal Point For Palestine

The Euro-Mediterranean partnership consists of the following countries; Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, Tumisia and Turkey as well as the 15 members of the European Union.
Objectives

EUMEDIS aims essentially at three objectives:

  • Within EUMEDIS’ strand one (which covers the Provision of basic resources for the development of the I.S.), EUMEDIS will fund the creation of a network of Mediterranean Information Society Focal Points which will develop a harmonised governmental strategy for the development of the Euro-Mediterranean Information Society
  • Within the same strand EUMEDIS will fund the (Internet based) interconnection between the European research network and the Mediterranean research networks. This connectivity will not only boost the development of the Internet in each Mediterranean country, but will also create a large “high bandwidth ring” all around the Mediterranean region, which will transport any sort of co-operative application developed by the partners of the Barcelona process.
  • In the second strand of the initiative EUMEDIS will fund regional pilot information society projects in five sectors of application (topping 35 Meuro of Community contribution).
