Euromed Heritage: Creating a Future that Cares for the Past

The Mediterranean is a cradle of many civilisations. Its historic settlements and archaeological sites, as well as its customs and traditional crafts skills, form a legacy that is shared by every country on its shore. Since this unique cultural endowment is a resource under threat and a shared responsibility, a regional programme within the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, Euromed Heritage, is helping the 27 Partners to transform their cultural capital into a social and economic assest, and to appreciate their common interests.
