During the second semester of the year 1997, the Mediterranean Foundation involved young people from various Euro-Mediterranean Countries in meetings and seminars on Euro-Mediterranean Partnership. A number of preparatory meetings were held, with the participation of about 600 young people in the Hall “Santa Chiara” inside the homonymous building.

The Mediterranean Foundation distributed books and teaching – information papers. The final meeting, held on November 15th 1997 at Teatrino di Corte in the Royal Palace of Naples, aimed at selecting the 600 young people who participated, later on, in the 2nd Euromed Civil Forum, giving important contributions of proposals thanks to the preparation achieved during the previous meetings and seminars.
