Project description
International partnership building and support to dialogues
The ClusMED project is a Support Action (SA) intended to contribute to international cooperation between EU and MED countries in the field of ICT Regulations in support of Societal Challenges.ClusMED aims at implementing cooperative research in the ICT sector through the identification, analysis and benchmarking of national ICT regulations, taking into consideration five target MED countries (Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco). The project will focus on the role of regulations as enablers of development in the ICT sector: to this end, it will assess and compare the ICT regulatory frameworks currently operating in MED countries, with the aim of identifying and sharing best practices. MED ICT regulations will also be benchmarked against some EU regulatory standards and experiences in overcoming barriers to the full exploitation of ICTs for tackling Societal Challenges. This objective will be mainly achieved through the implementation of multi-stakeholders workshops, which will also contribute to the setting up of a permanent dialogue between European and Mediterranean countries on regulatory issues in the ICT sector, as one of the key drivers of sustainable and inclusive growth.In order to maximize the impact and diffusion of project results, ClusMED will build synergies with other relevant initiatives concerning international cooperation with MED countries, in particular with MOSAIC and MED Dialogue, the other two projects resulting from the call "FP7-ICT-2011.10.3 International partnership building and support to dialogues" and with EMERG, the Euro-Mediterranean Regulators Group initiative. ClusMED will also establish a proper exchange of information with relevant ICT European Technology Platforms.
