Who we are

MedBESP is a regional networking platform for sharing knowledge and supporting the
development of the blue economy. MedBESP is the largest “one-stop-shop” for general,

Mediterranean.

Our goals

MedBESP aims at improving maritime governance in the Mediterranean by promoting a more
strategic, integrated and coordinated approach to policies; enabling co-operation and
