In 2011 the Med Programme started the realisation of a 3 years capitalisation process. During the last week of June 2011, four capitalisation workshops (one for each thematic priority) were carried out in Rome. This first round of workshops was an important starting point for sharing the capitalisation methodology. Moreover it proved to be useful for exchanging on projects' capitalisation practices and approaches as well as on common problems and needs. Finally, the workshops resulted in first orientation for the definition of thematic clusters. As a second step, a Cluster and Capitalisation day was organised in Marseilles on 30th November 2011.
