A few years ago, the Union for the Mediterranean marked November 28 as the date to “celebrate” Mediterranean Day, although now the day must work to visualize the emergency situation in the multiple crises that the area is experiencing. We discussed these emergencies with Isidro González, spokesperson for the UPM and also with Vicent Garcés, president of the Mediterranean Citizens’ Assembly Foundation. This interview is part of the synthesis of the proposals of the ACM Foundation IX meeting held in Valencia in November 2021.
