FEMISE accueille 2 nouveaux membres !

FEMISE est ravi d’annoncer que deux nouveaux membres ont rejoint son réseau, à partir de décembre 2021 :

  1. The Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research (LISER), Luxembourg
  2. The Department of Economics of the University IOANNINA, Greece.

En outre,  « SOAS, University of London » a maintenant remplacé le LMEI, (The London Middle East Institute), SOAS comme membre actif du FEMISE.

Vous trouverez ci-dessous plus de détails sur ces trois institutions.

Le FEMISE est toujours ouvert à de nouveaux membres pour rejoindre le plus grand réseau EU-Med. Tous les membres sont actifs et participent régulièrement aux activités institutionnelles et techniques du réseau.

En 2020 et 2021, le Bureau a lancé un processus visant à examiner le statut des membres existants en termes de participation aux activités du FEMISE, y compris leur réponse aux votes de l’Assemblée générale. Après une classification des institutions existantes en fonction de leur participation, le comité d’adhésion du FEMISE a présenté ses recommandations au Bureau concernant les membres inactifs. Au cours des deux dernières années, un certain nombre d’institutions ont réactivé leur adhésion tandis que d’autres ont été retirées car leurs institutions n’existent plus ou sont devenues « inactives » depuis de nombreuses années.

Nous avons le plaisir d’annoncer que suite à l’adhésion des 2 nouveaux membres au réseau FEMISE, le nombre de membres du réseau a atteint 100 institutions : 54 du Nord (représentant l’UE-27 et le Royaume-Uni) et 46 du Sud (représentant les 10 pays du Sud et de l’Est de la Méditerranée).

Ceci est un vote de confiance pour FEMISE qui se développe pour devenir le plus grand réseau UE-Med dans la région, avec un nombre croissant de chercheurs des deux rives travaillant ensemble pour le développement et l’intégration de la région et un nombre croissant de contacts auprès des décideurs politiques et des organisations internationales.
