For the first time, the Employment and Labor Ministers of the Euro-Mediterranean partner countries (43 countries) gathered for a ministerial conference in Marrakech on November 9-10, as part of the Barcelona Process: Union for the Mediterranean. The Ministers set the bases for a "framework of action" which would help "bring a true social dimension into the Euro-Mediterranean project" as well as stronger social dialogue. (Ref. 080896)
“Faced with their coming joint challenges (demographic
growth, an ageing population, job creation, modernization of the labor markets,
maintaining a high level of social protection, passing knowledge and education
on…) the 43 States on both sides of the Mediterranean decided, as part of the Barcelona
Process: Union for the Mediterranean, to develop a “joint framework of action”
explained the French Minister of Labor.
