History

2002


"World Med 2002" in Marseille, cooperation between AFAS  (French Association for the Advancement of Sciences) and  the Marseille City Council.


Between 2004 and 2006, in the framework of AFAS, Robert Klapisch initiated Sharing
Knowledge conferences :
 

2004


For the CERN 50th Anniversary, Sharing Knowledge across  the Mediterranean (1), in Geneva, supported by UNESCO.

 

In Geneva, John Ellis speaks about the extension of the program of the CERN and Herwig Schopper of the SESAME program of UNESCO.





     

2005


Together with Moroccan universities Sharing Knowledge  across the Mediterranean (2) in Casablanca; supported by  NATO as Advanced Research Workshop.


In Casablanca, Bernard Bachelier chairs the Round Table on Agriculture.





     

2006


Sharing Knowledge across the Mediterranean (3)  was hosted  by the Abdus Salam ICTP Institute in Trieste. NATO renewed  its support to the meeting.


In Trieste, Sigi Gruber explains the measures taken by the European Union to facilitate the  mobility of the foreign researchers working within the European Union.

Starting in 2006, the success of these conferences and the necessity to develop them led to the creation of a new structure:

  • The international nature of the activities called for the creation of an adapted structure.
  • The successes attained within the framework of the multidisciplinary conferences incited to widen the activities by the organization of “executive” workshops.
  • It became necessary to find financial resources to support the new activities and in particular to find longer term financing.

To pursue and develop the work introduced by the Sharing Knowledge across the Mediterranean conferences Robert Klapisch created a Foundation.
