MCH

Mediterranean Common House

The IASEM is the promoter of the network MCH - Mediterranean Common House, a network of 21 members, including Foundations, Research Centres, Universities and Associations, based in 16 countries (Turkey, Italy, Spain, Greece, Romania, Croatia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Serbia, Northern Cyprus, Jordan, Tunisia, Morocco, China, Singapore, United Arab Emirates).

Each Partner has subscribed to the Manifesto of the Mediterranean Civilization, a manifesto in 10 articles, which contains the values that inspire the Network. The Manifesto is submitted to the signature of authorities and intellectuals from all over the Mediterranean.

The Network aims to promote concrete spaces of dialogue and reflection throughout the Mediterranean, with the aim of generating a common sensitivity, aimed at establishing a climate of mutual respect and knowledge, fruitful exchanges and mutual collaboration. The network wants to experience a process of "housing" of a common home and the creation of a space of confrontation at different levels, with the intent of moving ideas and exchanging intellectual and human experiences.

Deciding to live in "common houses" means making a cultural leap. It means deliberately choosing respect over opposition. It means choosing sharing instead of special interest. Cooperation instead of antagonism. Personal and social responsibility instead of surrender to plans that appear preordained.
