In the framework of Rome MED Dialogues 2021, the Institute for International Political Studies (ISPI) launched, with the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, the 3rd edition of the “Youth Forum Contest” dedicated this year to the theme of “green and sustainable solutions for the future”.
The purpose of the initiative is to offer to young people from the MENA region, under the age of 35, an opportunity of training and professional growth through the presentation of innovative projects relating to the areas identified by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) n.6 – Clean water and sanitation, n.7 – Clean and accessible energy and n.12 – Consumption and responsible production.
The ideators of the top 15 projects will participate in a “Project Development” training course. Candidates, who pass the second selection phase following the course, will be invited to present their projects on the sidelines of the 7th edition of the MED Dialogues (Rome, 2-4 December 2021) for their final evaluation. The two winners will receive cash prizes.
