The relationship between the European Union and the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is the topic of the EU-funded al-Jisr project. Among other components, the project organises a series of workshops on issues that are of relevance for the inter-regional relationship. In this context, the Istituto Affari Internazionali invited experts from Europe, the Mediterranean and the Arab Gulf states to discuss the prospects for EU-GCC cooperation in the Mediterranean. The event took place in Rome, on December 10-11, 2009 (Pdf download: Agenda).
