1 CAPITALIZATION EVENT ENVIRONMENTAL AND SUSTAINABILITY CHALLENGES IN THE MEDITERRANEAN AREA AGENDA 28 OCTOBER 2015 VILLA CELIMONTANA, PALAZZETTO MATTEI VIA DELLA NAVICELLA, 12 ROME 1

2 Context The environment has no respect for national boundaries: natural habitats and weather patterns often spread across several regions or several countries. That is why efforts to protect the environment of regions around the Mediterranean can be more effective when they extend across borders. Given its focus on cross-border cooperation, the ENPI CBC Med Programme is a natural fit for environmental initiatives. The 38 environmental sustainability projects funded under the ENPI CBC Mediterranean Sea Basin Programme are divided into the following areas: Water management (8 projects); Waste treatment and recycling (6 projects); Renewable energies and energy efficiency (9 projects); Protection of the environment and natural resources (5 projects); Integrated coastal zone management (10 projects). This capitalization event aims at analyzing and discussing key topics addressed and main results achieved by the projects financed under ENPI CBC MED Programme , in view of identifying good practices and common valuable approaches. Complementarities and synergies of the results among the implemented projects will be highlighted. For more information on environmental related projects, please consult our brochure here. The event is organized with the logistic support of Società Geografica Italiana, lead partner of the Future of Our Past project, which is providing Palazzetto Mattei, its prestigious headquarters. Directions are available below. 2
