AVITEM is a French cooperation agency dedicated to a strategic region for France and the European Union: the Mediterranean area.
It conveys the political will to contribute to the creation of a community of sustainable development and solidarity amongst Mediterranean territories. The humanist values AVITEM promotes respond to the need to forge new models together and to build new partnership relations capable of meeting the challenges facing all Mediterranean countries. Through training, expertise, networking and European cooperation, AVITEM takes part in the collective construction of innovative strategies and projects for urban development, the sustainability of ecosystems and the well-being of populations.
