ASCAME and the Secretariat of the Union for the Mediterranean (UfMS) will sign a new strategic agreement in order to enhance the collaboration between both institutions during the official inauguration of the 8th Mediterranean Week of Economic Leaders on November 26th in Barcelona.

This agreement aims to promote business participation and private sector involvement within UfMS and ASCAME activities in the Mediterranean region. It will be signed by the President of ASCAME, Mr Mohamed Choucair and the General Secretary of the UfM, Mr Fathallah Sijilmassi.

This agreement builds on the previous MoU signed by the organization shortly after the creation of the UfM in 2008 and is a testament to the will of both international organizations for the promotion of Mediterranean interests.
