UNIMED is an association of 130 Universities coming from 23 countries of both shores of Mediterranean. UNIMED’s aim is to develop university cooperation and mobility, and contribute to advancements in education and research in the Euro-Mediterranean area.
Through the many initiatives carried out over two decades, UNIMED has promoted collaboration between the universities of the Mediterranean, becoming a point of reference of international university cooperation. UNIMED has a wide experience in EU project participation and management and in the field of Higher Education. UNIMED participates in a number of projects in different programmes (Erasmus+, Horizon 2020, Interreg MED).

Why we are Participating in the Project

In order to pursue the broader objective of encouraging scientific, cultural, social and economic cooperation in the Euro-Mediterranean region, UNIMED supports its member universities through internationalization processes, quality assurance strategies and innovative inclusive practices, among others.

The VALEU-X project mixes all those fundamental goals by means of innovative teaching methods. In this view, UNIMED can also count on a steady experience in managing projects in the field of Higher Education and in particular in Virtual Teaching and Learning, Virtual Exchange and Open Educational Resources.
