2010 Edition The experience brought through the Terramed project has showed that, beyond the differences and national specificities within the programming schedules of TV and radios in the region, it is possible to identify and develop many "Mediterranean-oriented” programs and shows. The program selection that is made in the Terramed project - documentaries, variety shows, magazines, fiction or other genres and formats produced by the broadcaster partners - is a rich tapestry of images and sounds that illustrates and promotes culture, art, history, archaeological patrimony, nature, traditions of the Euro-Mediterranean area. With this in mind and on the occasion of its next Conference (Paris, 8-11 April 2010), COPEAM has suggested to its members to extend this exercise of construction of a “Mediterranean imaginary” by identifying a week-long common time segment devoted to Mediterranean-oriented programmes. Such an initiative has a political, cultural and multiple value and is also an international media event. A structured action to promote the initiative is asked to all the broadcaster partners. HIGHLIGHT The "Week of the Mediterranean" on air on COPEAM TV and radio members On the occasion of the 17th Annual Conference of COPEAM in Paris, from April 8 to 11 2010, COPEAM proposed to its members to put forward a specific Mediterranean programming on their channels. ERTU, Arte France, RTVA, TV5 Monde, the Tunisian Radio, ROR (Radio Constanza), CyBC, EBU and ASBU have adhered to this initiative in order to offer the public from both shores contents related to the Mediterranean. All types of formats, pre-recorded or live, were broadcast: talk shows, documentaries, fictions, magazines, music programmes or others devoted to the young and children. A TV logo as well as a radio jingle helped identifying, all along the week, the programmes of the initiative. This new experience, symbolizing the broadcasters’ willingness to cooperate, witnesses the quality and the importance of the Mediterranean programming. This is why, during the Conference in Paris, a common discussion took place on the perpetuation of such innovative action. Read the TV programming
