EUROSION for the Mediterranean

The EU has implemented the EUROSION project (www.eurosion.org). It was a very successful project that resulted in recommendations for combating erosion in the EU countries. In agreement with the EU, it has been decided to consider the possibilities of using the EUROSION results in the Mediterranean countries with the objective of defining a strategy of erosion combating in the Mediterranean in the near future. Therefore, PAP/RAC is organising an expert meeting “Towards Mediterranean Regional Strategy on Coastal Erosion: Benefiting from the EUROSION Project“ in order to identify the parts of the EUROSION project that can be applied in the Mediterranean and to prepare an appropriate programme of activities. The meeting will be organised in Nicosia, Cyprus, on March 16 - 17, 2006. It will be attended by a number of national and international experts in the field.
