The federation aims to:
protect the Mediterranean area against further deterioration and
repair damage inflicted upon the environment.
preserve the Mediterranean's ecological, cultural and ethnic diversity.
increase public participation and democratic decision-making. Greater
democracy is both an end in itself and is vital to the protection
of the environment and the sound management of natural resources.
achieve social, economic and political justice and equal access
to resources and opportunities for men and women.
promote the need for environmentally sustainable development in
the Mediterranean countries.
Friends of the Earth MedNet groups
are united by a common conviction that these aims require both
strong grassroots activism and effective campaigning and coordination.
By sharing information, knowledge, skills and resources on both
the bilateral and multilateral levels Friends of the Earth MedNet
groups support each other's development and strengthen their campaigns.
