Thanks to the generosity of the Atkin Foundation, ICSR is offering young leaders from Israel and the Arab world the opportunity to come to London for a period of four months, producing a research paper as the result of their work. The purpose of the fellowship is to provide young leaders from Israel and the Arab world with an opportunity to develop their ideas on how to further peace and understanding in the Middle East through research, debate and constructive dialogue in a neutral political environment.
Dr Amany Soliman, from Alexandria, Cairo looked at the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership. Dr Soliman’s paper highlights the fact that despite the economic cooperation that is encouraged by the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, prosperity is unlikely without progress at the political-diplomatic level.
