The deadline for registration is 12th February 2010, 20.00 GMT

Civil society organisations* working across the Union for the Mediterranean region are invited to register for the very first Anna Lindh Forum, the major regional gathering for intercultural dialogue.

Selected representatives will participate at their own expenses**, with a final decision about participation by the Anna Lindh Foundation headquarters to ensure a balance in terms of representation from the two shores of the Mediterranean, fields of interest and types of organisations.

Please note that this call is now closed. Thank for your submissions.

The participants should:

• be a resident in one of the 43 countries of the Union for the Mediterranean;
• have knowledge/experience in at least one of the fields of the Anna Lindh Foundation;
• be strongly motivated to encourage intercultural dialogue;
• be able to communicate in English or French;
• pay a participation fee (Euro 30 for ALF members; Euro 100 for non-members).

Participants will receive a confirmation or refusal of their registration within one week after the submission of the registration.

Before filling in the on-line registration, please download the instructions “Registration Anna Lindh Forum” with some useful information and the provisional programme.

* Please do NOT register with this call if you already applied to the first Call for Participation launched by the Anna Lindh Foundation in December 2009. You will receive an email, either confirming that the Foundation will pay your participation or asking if you want to participate on your own expenses.

** The participants have to pay their travel, accommodation and visa costs as well as the participation fee. Coffee and some meals will be provided by the Anna Lindh Foundation to all participants. Our travel agency www.viajeselcorteingles.es is available to assist you in the travel arrangements.
