Mediterranean Economies 2024
The New Agenda for the Mediterranean: Perspectives and Challenges

Context and overview
The 2024 edition of Mediterranean Economies explores the European Union's "New Agenda for the Mediterranean," a transformative framework designed to enhance collaboration and sustainable development with its Southern Mediterranean neighbours. This comprehensive analysis focuses on the agenda’s five key pillars: human development, governance, resilience and prosperity, peace and security, migration and mobility, and the green transition..
From 2020, the Mediterranean Economies Report is published in English and becomes Mediterranean Economies (2020 Edition).
The Mediterranean Economies series aims to serve as a permanent observatory for socio-economic dynamics in the Euro-Mediterranean area. It provides a valuable resource for researchers, scholars and policy makers seeking to better understand the phenomena influencing the societies within this region. The observatory project includes a dedicated website (https://www.ismed.cnr.it/rem) and a database containing essential socio-economic indicators for Mediterranean economies (http://datamed.cnr.it/).

In this issue

Through contributions from leading scholars and policymakers, the book provides in-depth analyses of these interconnected themes, addressing the Mediterranean's shared challenges. Highlights include the geopolitical consequences of the October 2023 Middle East crisis, the growing influence of Russia and China in the region, and infrastructure investments in MENA and Africa amidst G7-BRICS competition. The book also underscores the urgency of tackling environmental degradation, water scarcity, and gender inequalities while examining the intricate dynamics between migration policies and economic growth.

As the Mediterranean faces environmental pressures, socio-economic disparities, and political instability, this book emphasises the need for innovative strategies and regional integration to transform these challenges into opportunities.

Ideal for policymakers, academics, and stakeholders, Mediterranean Economies 2024 provides critical insights and actionable recommendations to foster a more inclusive, sustainable, and prosperous region.
