Ten years after the Barcelona Declaration, the European Commission, the City of Marseille and their partners proposed to hold a conference, where professionals from the audiovisual domain from both sides of the Mediterranean basin could discuss the role of the media in Euro-Mediterranean dialogue. This conference has taken place within the framework of a series of three major events focusing on
this subject in Jordan, Marseille and Barcelona.
Their findings have been presented to the Heads of States and Government at the Barcelona Summit of November 2005.
The four round tables were focused on “Reality of the EUROMED Partnership and the Neighbouring Policy in the Media”, “Freedom of Expression in the Euro-Mediterranean Media”,
“Societal problems as portrayed in Euro- Mediterranean Media” where Mrs. Alessandra Paradisi took part as speaker.
