1. Introduction The study needs to be viewed within the framework of EuroMed partnership.

The main objectives are the following: To provide a diagnosis on the logistical sector in the Mediterranean third countries.

To demonstrate the interest and feasibility of a logistics platform network.

The study on the logistical platforms allows to complement the diagnosis of other studies EuroMed: EuroMed Main Contract, Euromed Infrastructures.

2. Findings

The Euro-Mediterranean logistical platforms (EMLP) will facilitate international transit and will help better organise internal traffic flows.

EMLP will be able to help reorganise industrial, storage and transport zones in urban areas, which are often saturated and not well planned.

Enhancement of the overall performance of the logistics sector, reduction of costs of international transport, improvement of environmental efficiency.

Improvement of staff skills through a training programme tailored to international standards, hence better productivity and improved working conditions for employees.

Improved reliability of transport to consumer markets, enhancing the competitiveness of manufacturers in the MPC.

3. The LOGISMED network General principles

The LOGISMED network is based on four pillars: A certification strategy providing: a common model for the implementation of EMLP; global marketing; efficient relationships between the EMLP and the platforms of the EU. Private management of the EMLPF: contractual and flexible PPP system.

Shared training activity.

Common monitoring (observatory, communication, research).

The Program on Transport and Logistics (Marseille Center for Mediterranean Integration) Specific objectives: Develop a network for logistics training in the Mediterranean basin with similar curricula, with the aim of creating a regional pool of specialists to serve the needs not only of the NEMLP, but also of other logistical platforms and companies in the sector.

Create networks of teachers and professionals with an interest in further training in transport and logistics.

Provide support for the creation of the LOGISMED network.
