UfM Countries and blue economy stakeholders met in Brussels on March 14 to continue making progress on the implementation of the 2021 UfM Ministerial Declaration on Sustainable Blue Economy and its related Roadmap, and to discuss ongoing and future joint activities - including further reflections on the mid-to-long-term. In the framework of the Monitoring, Reporting, and Evaluation System of the Roadmap, UfM countries shared progress achieved at national level by Ministerial priority. This exercise will constitute the baseline for yearly updates by the countries on the implementation of the Ministerial, foreseen in 2024 and 2025. The First meeting of the Blue Mediterranean Partnership, announced at the Mediterranean Pavilion during COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh, took place directly after the WG meeting.
