The Atlantic Treaty Association is happy to welcome you to its new Mediterranean Security Issues online forum! The forum is meant to facilitate discussions and debates on topics related to Mediterranean security issues and related topics. Considering the number of events that have been occurring in the region recently, the ATA feels that it is important for young people from the Mediterranean region to come together and exchange their own ideas. We hope that you will broaden your understanding of the region, and deepen the overall conversation concerning these regional issues.
