General Information

INTER ALIA is a private not-for-profit organization based in Athens, Greece. Its activities are carried out through its two interconnected branches, a youth organization and a think-tank. Both branches have common aims though diverse tools for pursuing them. Inter Alia's founders and members are particularly interested in contemporary challenges of the EU with particular focus on education, democracy and collective action, and social entrepreneurship.

Mission and Objectives

INTER ALIA aims: - To bring people closer to each other and to Europe through breaking stereotypes, analysing and deconstructing conflict, engaging actively in key political issues and dialogue. - To raise awareness of the EU & prospective EU citizens on available channels for acting, participating & shaping Europe - To utilize the increasing willingness of the European youth to share their skills, expertise and energy, and to improve youth employability - To apply pressure to EU mechanisms for the expansion of participation of EU & prospective EU citizens in the European process - To provide multi-disciplinary approaches and integrate fragmented knowledge into a fruitful scheme

Main Projects / Activities

INTER ALIA's members and network of partners target the organization's aims through both theoretical/academic and practical (educational & civic) ventures. Specifically, Inter Alia uses four basic tools for action: - Analysis: Collecting & publishing original analyses that touch upon contemporary developments, concepts and ideas that unite or divide us, that promote or obstruct collective action and Europeans’ common sense of belonging, and that impact on our perceived role within the community at all levels (local, regional, national, European, global). Inter Alia has published more than 20 policy analyses this far. Some of the recent ones were related to: viewpoints towards Islam in contemporary Europe; the rising populism in Western Balkan countries; the education revolution that is attempted by particular institutions through new media and tools. - Debate: Promoting direct interaction between experts (policy makers, scholars) and the wider public. Training courses, workshops, seminars, public discussions & conferences are the main tools for promoting dialogue and participation with the underlying goals of making Europe more popular and likeable. Inter Alia holds regular events that aim at communicating contemporary issues of Europe through non-formal learning methods. Along with activities at the national level, Inter Alia has been represented by affiliated experts and young members in numerous international activities such as workshops, training courses, job-shadowing, forums etc. - Networking: Inter Alia aims at supporting and promoting views & activities of numerous organizations that share our vision for an active and assertive European demos. Collective action is an essential step for minimizing the distance between the EU and the European constituencies and for effectively applying pressure towards more accountability and openness. These aims have been pursued through promotional activites for partner organizations as well as through participation to a number of partnerships and consortia involved in a variety of national, European and international projects. - Research: Inter Alia’s platform is open to scholars, academic & policy analysts, but also to students and journalists who wish to contribute articles in their field of expertise related (but not limited) to contemporary cultural, political, educational, economic, commercial & social issues of Europe. The production of Inter Alia's research portfolio is made up of three collective volumes, public opinion surveys and social research as well as occasional papers. Inter Alia is run by a team of professionals from different fields (http://interaliaproject.com/people.html) while participation is project based. Inter Alia has involved a number of people from diverse fields in its ventures including young academics, civil society organizations, associations and think tanks, high-school students and youth. These partnerships are cultivated and extended through Inter Alia's growing pan-European network of partners and collaborators (http://interaliaproject.com/partnerships.html).

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

INTER ALIA through its philosophy that one organization cannot achieve much on its own but must put itself inter alia its peer, can contribute in the main aims of ALF for bringing together civil society and citizens across the Mediterranean to trust-building and mutual understanding which are among others among the core aims and values of ours.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

We wish to empower our organisation through stable networks based on common values. At the same time we can assist other organisations in their respective goals. Alltogether, our joint aims can be better promoted through joint ventures rather than fragmented action with questionable continuity. Thus, cooperation for the joint civic benefit, the serving of ALF aims and at the same time of the mission of each organization is our main motivation for joining.

International Conference on Security and Energy in the Eastern Mediterranean

Submitted by Greece on جمعة, 23/12/2022 - 12:20
International Conference on Security and Energy in the Eastern Mediterranean

The Jean Monnet European Center of Excellence of the University of Athens organized in Athens on November 4 2022 an International Conference on Security and Energy in the Eastern Mediterranean, with a welcome from the Minister of Foreign Affairs N. Dendias, and the participation of dozens of experts from Europe, the USA and Eastern Mediterranean countries.

The first session was dedicated to maritime delimitation issues in the Eastern Mediterranean. Under the chairmanship of the Dean of the Faculty of Law of the University of Athens, Professor L-A. Sisilianos, Professor J.L. Suarez de Vivero from the University of Seville, author of the "Seville Map", Professor N. Ros (France), Dr. Y. E. Acikgonul (Turkey), energy expert A. Varshavsky (Israel) and Assoc. Professor I. Stribis (University of the Aegean) analyzed the effect of islands on maritime delimitation, the stages of the delimitation process, and delimitation agreements between neighbouring states in the Eastern Mediterranean. The need to respect international law and negotiate in good faith was also underlined.

The second panel’s focus was on security issues in the East Mediterranean. The panel was coordinated by Professor at the University of Athens P. Tsakonas, while Gen. (ret.) A. Gilead (Israel), Dr. R. Meinardus (Germany), Professor C. Aktar (Turkey), Dr. P. Savvides (Cyprus), A. Burweila (Libya) and Professor K. Ifantis participated in it. It was stretched that Greece is a precious partner to Israel, as well as the stance of Berlin that Greek sovereignty on the Aegean islands is unquestionable. Special mention was made of Turkey’s practice to abusively evoke Art. 51 of the UN Charter on self-defence. Thus, aggressive Turkey moves towards becoming a pariah-state. Libyan analyst A. Burweila made evident that the Libyan-Turkish agreements are null and void not only from an international law perspective, but also with regards to Libya’s national law.

Under the coordination of Professor N. Farantouris, former Minister of Energy, Professor G. Maniatis (University of Piraeus), K. Stambolis (Institute of Energy of South-Eastern Europe) and A. Burweila (Libya) participated in the third panel which treated the subject of energy challenges in the Eastern Mediterranean. The speakers emphasized that, for the next 30 years, Europe's energy mix will include both natural gas and renewables, hence the need for rapid exploitation of natural gas deposits in the Eastern Mediterranean, and their importance for the EU’s independence from Russia. The two Greek speakers supported the importance and viability of the EastMed pipeline. Ms. Burweila presented the recent Libyan proposal for the construction of a gas pipeline from Greece to the eastern Libyan coast. The proposal was based on an earlier discussion and planning of this route in 2007-2009, as analyzed by the intervening former Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs G. Valinakis, who also explained its advantages in relation to EastMed. Therefore, the reinstatement of the proposal should be seriously considered.

In the last panel, chaired by the former Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Professor G. Valinakis, the prospects for the future were examined with the participation of American analyst Dr. M. Rubin (American Enterprise Institute), A. Aydintasbas (Turkey/Brookings Institution), Ambassador (ret.) M. Harrari (Israel) and Dr. Th. Dokos, national security adviser to the Prime Minister. Dr. Rubin was very critical of Turkey's international behaviour. Ms. Aydintasbas maintained that the NATO de-confictional channels are of vital importance. Finally, the former Israeli ambassador Harrari underlined the risk of escalation "due to wrong perceptions" and recommended preventive normalization diplomacy and the "non-exclusion of Turkey".
