Mediterranean Organic Agriculture: Executive Agreement
In the framework of ENI CBC MED Organic Ecosystem Project: “Boosting cross border Organic Ecosystem through enhancing agro-food alliances”, the main objective of WP3 is to establish a Cross-Border Organic Agro-Food Open Ecosystem (hereinafter called Ecosystem).
The Ecosystem is an open network where complex interactions among different players with complementary backgrounds are produced. It is established on a well-structured national and cross-border alliance, through a concrete collaborative approach and a synergistic effect. The Ecosystem aims at increasing cooperation and dialogue among private and public actors of the organic sector stimulating dynamic discussion and participatory exchange of experiences, problems, needs and possible sustainable solutions to scale up the Med organic sector and improve its competitiveness as well as to promote economic growth in Partner countries and in the Region.
This ExecutiveAgreement, signed by Organic Ecosystem beneficiaries (Partners, Associated Partners, MSMEs, actors of organic and innovation chain) aims to give an overview of general objectives, principles and conditions under which the partners of the Ecosystem intend to develop capacity-building activities, knowledge sharing and cooperation, aimed at strengthening organic MSMEs in the Partner Countries supported by Competent Authorities (CAs, members of the Mediterranean Organic Agriculture Network-MOAN).
Apart from the project partners, 285 stakeholders signed this agreement.
Organic agriculture operators from the Mediterranean: BOOKLET OF CONTACTS
The ORGANIC ECOSYSTEM project has brought together a consortium of operators and public-private partners from Jordan, Lebanon, Italy, and Greece, aiming to drive business alliances in the field of organic agriculture.
In an effort to foster collaboration and promote top-quality organic products, we have compiled a comprehensive booklet of contact information for all the SMEs and partners involved in the project.
This valuable resource includes contact details for 35 operators and public-private partners who have been actively working with ORGANIC ECOSYSTEM. By creating a network of like-minded organizations, the project sought to facilitate cooperation and knowledge exchange among participants.
For individuals or businesses in search of potential business partners offering top-quality organic products, this document will prove to be a useful tool. It provides a wide range of options from a diverse array of SMEs and operators across Jordan, Lebanon, Italy, and Greece.
We are proud to state that this network of Mediterranean SMEs is committed to the principles of organic agriculture and has a demonstrated track record of excellence in their respective fields.
To offer a glimpse into the potential of ORGANIC ECOSYSTEM's network, here are a few examples of the participating SMEs. In Jordan, we came across the first organic producer of poultry products in the MENA region, as well as a supplier of caffeine-free coffee made from date seeds. Lebanon boasts the largest carob bean farm in the Mediterranean and is one of the vast network of farms and biggest distributors of organic products in the MENA and GCC regions. In Greece, we discovered exceptional extra virgin olive oil derived from ancient Mediterranean olive trees, in addition to a company specialising in high phenolic olive oil. Lastly, Italy presented gourmet organic almonds.
In addition to the SMEs, the consortium involved in the ORGANIC ECOSYSTEM project included several esteemed partners. These partners played a crucial role in facilitating collaboration and providing expertise.
The consortium was composed of the Ministry of Agriculture of Jordan, the Jordan Exporters and Producers Association for Fruit and Vegetables (JEPA), the Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture of Zahle and the Bekaa, the International Centre for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies - Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari, INNOPOLIS- Centre for Innovation and Culture, and the Association of the Mediterranean Chambers of Commerce and Industry (ASCAME).
The booklet of contact information provided in this project is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to collaborate with organizations that offer top-quality organic products.

Geomatics Techniques for Historical Buildings Documentation and Restoration in Northern Jordan
Historical conservation and restoration is an important issue for heritage structures, this
research aims to develop heritage building information model (HBIM) for (Klaib
Basha Saraya) in northern Jordan. In Jordanian Heritage Management, such models
are still regarded a long way from becoming a well-established and widely used
technique. Using terrestrial laser scanning technologies, the project will bridge the gap
between historical documentation and historical building information modeling. HBIM
was created with parametric pieces to reflect the study area's structural, functional,
architectural, and historical aspects.
