Summary: | In October 2009, the World Bank,
together with the European Investment Bank, the Governments
of Egypt, France, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, and Tunisia, and
the city of Marseille, launched the Marseille Center for
Mediterranean Integration (MCMI). The Center will facilitate
access to best knowledge and practices and improve
cooperation to support development policies geared towards
greater integration and convergence in the Mediterranean
region. MCMI will offer a platform for public and
independent institutions from the region to discuss these
challenges learn from each other and strengthen local,
national and regional capacities to manage interdependence,
and other developmental challenges. Among these challenges
is that of good governance and thisquick note is
based on a speech given at one of MCMI's first forays
into this area with a focus on the governance of
universities and its broader impact on the good governance
agenda in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. |
