In the framework of COPEAM annual Conference in Malta (26-28 March 2015) - focused on the theme “The Mediterranean and the exodus of populations: the role of the media” - COPEAM and all its members attending the event unanimously adopted a resolution aimed at mobilizing the media, notably the public service ones, around principles and concrete proposals, such as the realization of a TV and radio institutional promo so as to raise public awareness at a regional level on the phenomena related to refugees.
Building on this resolution and with a view to the World Refugee Day (20 June 2015), COPEAM has produced a 30’’ video in several languages (Arabic, English, French, Italian) in collaboration with UNHCR, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
This initiative has met with a large consensus by COPEAM broadcaster members that have committed themselves to celebrate the 2015 World Refugee Day 2015 by airing this video clip.
