Short description

In an effort to reduce the pollution of the Mediterranean the Euro-Mediterranean Partners committed themselves to the “Horizon 2020 Initiative”. A further cooperation with the ENP south countries focused on the preparation of the second Horizon2020 assessment report including country-level assessments.
