Lo
scenario degli attori delle relazioni internazionali è in evoluzione.
Ai rapporti tra Stati nazionali si affiancano, in misura crescente,
interazioni tra Enti e Comunità locali.
Tuttavia, l’evoluzione verso un modello di cooperazione decentrata è
rallentata dalla mancanza di competenze specifiche da parte delle
Amministrazioni locali, nazionali e dei Paesi Terzi.
Che cos’è NeBaMe
NeBaMe è un programma di mobilità e di condivisione di esperienze tra
Amministratori ed esperti degli Enti Locali italiani e dei Paesi
Balcani e del Mediterraneo finalizzato a:
-
l’alta formazione,
in lingua italiana, di personale amministrativo, politico e tecnico
degli Enti locali dei Balcani e del Mediterraneo sui temi: 1)
Relazioni “Central – Local governance”, 2) Politiche Ambientali, 3)
Politiche di immigrazione ed occupazione
-
lo sviluppo di una
rete di conoscenze reciproche, personali e professionali, tra i
partecipanti ai Corsi e gli Enti Locali Italiani
-
il rafforzamento
dei legami tra gli Amministratori degli Enti locali dei Paesi
coinvolti e le strutture produttive, culturali e sociali italiane.
Il
Programma si rivolge a Funzionari ed Esperti di Amministrazioni ed
Enti locali, Università, Agenzie dei Paesi dei Balcani
e del Mediterraneo,
in possesso del diploma di laurea o titolo equivalente, che già
operano nei tre settori sopra indicati e che hanno maturato un
Curriculum professionale caratterizzato da un’apertura verso le
relazioni internazionali, principalmente con l’Italia, ed in possesso
di una conoscenza di base della lingua italiana.
I
partecipanti seguiranno il seguente programma:
-
Corsi
di Perfezionamento on-line di lingua e cultura economica italiana (20
gg.)
I
corsi mirano a fornire gli strumenti linguistici per gestire un
rapporto professionale in lingua italiana e far conoscere
l’ordinamento istituzionale italiano e le basi dell’attuale tendenza
verso il decentramento
-
Corsi tematici
(30 gg.) “Central - Local governance”, “Politiche Ambientali”,
“Politiche di immigrazione ed occupazione”
I Corsi tematici si
svolgeranno in Italia, in forma parallela e saranno caratterizzati da
un approccio con un forte accento sull’esperienza pratica. I
partecipanti verranno suddivisi tra i tre Corsi sulla base dei
rispettivi settori di attività e di interesse.
-
Visite
istituzionali
Saranno organizzate visite presso le Istituzioni Europee, Nazionali e
Regionali italiane, nel corso delle quali saranno realizzati incontri
con:
o
funzionari della CE
o
rappresentanti degli Assessorati all’Ambiente alle Attività Produttive
ed alle Politiche interregionali di alcune Regioni campione italiane
o
responsabili per la definizione delle politiche delle Regioni italiane
che interessano i partecipanti e che sono di sostegno e di legame tra
i Paesi delle due rive
o
esponenti di organizzazioni ed associazioni del mondo produttivo e
culturale italiano
-
Stage
presso le Amministrazioni Regionali italiane (2 mesi)
Un
servizio di job-placement sarà avviato fin dall’inizio del
Programma per individuare le istituzioni ospitanti, le attività da
svolgere, i referenti e l’impegno che ogni stage richiede da entrambe
le parti. Una relazione finale sullo stage costituirà uno strumento
operativo di facile lettura per valutarne l’utilità e l’impatto sulle
relazioni internazionali
-
Sessione finale
La
Sessione finale della prima fase di NeBaMe permetterà di fare un
bilancio dell’esperienza di formazione e di scambio culturale e di
definire le modalità di continuazione del Programma. Al fine di
ottimizzare gli interventi successivi, saranno tenute in massima
considerazione le opinioni delle strutture ospitanti.
Durante questa Sessione sarà consegnato a tutti i partecipanti un
diploma di partecipazione, rilasciato dall’Università della Tuscia di
Viterbo, con la certificazione di cinque crediti formativi.

NeBaMe
Network
for Central Administrations and Local Authorities Officials
in the Balkan and
Mediterranean Regions
Interuniversity
Research Centre for Sustainable Development (CIRPS)
of the University of Rome
“La Sapienza”
In collaboration and with the financial support
of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAE) General
Directorate for Development Cooperation
The scenario of the actors
involved in international relations is evolving rapidly. Relations
among national states are complemented by interactions between local
authorities and communities in order to share similar experience in
different environments and try to solve global issues.
However, this tendency is
hampered by lack of specific skills in the local authorities.
NeBaMe is a training and
exchange programme for local authorities administrators in the Balkan
and Mediterranean area aiming at:
-
high-level training and experience-sharing for political and
technical personnel from local authorities in the Balkan and
Mediterranean area on 1) “Central – local governance”,
2)“Environmental policies”, 3) “Immigration and employee policies”.
Training modules are delivered mainly in Italian after an on-line
Italian culture and language course;
-
developing personal and professional knowledge among the
participants from the Balkan and Mediterranean countries and the
Italian local authorities;
-
encouraging interaction between the participants.
NeBaMe targets officials
and professionals (up to 60) from central administrations and local
authorities, universities and agencies in Balkan
and Mediterranean Countries,
with the following qualifications: degree or equivalent level of
education, working experience in one of the above-mentioned sectors,
professional experience in international relations, mainly with Italy,
at least intermediate knowledge of the Italian language.
Planned activities are as
follows:
-
Advanced
On-line Course of Italian Language and Economic Culture (20 days)
The Course aims at
providing the skills needed to manage business activities in Italian,
to learn the Italian institutional system and the basics of the
current trend of “devolution” in Italy;
-
Thematic
Courses (30 days) “Immigration and employee policies”, “Central-Local
Governance”, “Environmental Policies”
Thematic courses will take
place in University of Roma “La Sapienza”, in complementary
sessions. Classes will be held in an empirical and pragmatic approach,
focusing on experience, as opposed to merely academic knowledge.
Participants will specifically attend the session of their own
interest;
-
Institutional Visits
During the Course, the following visits will be carried out in
Institutions of the European Union (UE), national and regional
organisations in Italy. The visits will offer the opportunity to
establish contact with:
-
European Commission officials;
-
Representatives of regional bodies in charge for economics
activities and inter-regional policies;
-
Representatives of intermediary organisations;
-
Internship to the Italian regional bodies (2 months)
For this purpose, a
job-placement service will be set-up, in order to identify the
hosting Institutions, the activities to be carried out, the contact
persons, and the Terms of Reference that each Balkan and Mediterranean
professional elaborates. The internship is conceived as an
“experience-sharing” exercise, as opposed to academic research. At the
end of each Internship, a final report will be examined for Intern
assessment.
-
Final
Workshop
The final Session of the
first NeBaMe phase will allow an overall evaluation, and a detailed
account of how to carry on the next phase of the Programme.
Comments made by the hosting structures will be greatly taken into
consideration for optimising further interventions. During this
session, all course attendants will be receive an “Award certificate”
from the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, equivalent to five
training credits.
Financial contribution
Board and lodging
expenses, tickets and insurance costs are taken care of by the Italian
Ministry of Foreign Affairs – DGCS - Office IX.
Management of the Programme
NebaMe is jointly managed by
Office IX of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs – DGCS and CIRPS. The
Programme requires a committed full-time staff in order to secure
sound working relations with local authorities, Embassies,
participants, coherence in the teaching module and back-stopping
activities.
A Steering Committee (SC)
and a Management Unit (MU) have been created. The Chairman of the SC
is Prof. Stefano GREGO, Vice-Dean of the University di Viterbo “La
Tuscia”. Full members are representatives from MAE and CIRPS. An
administrative service, a technical secretariat and a tutoring
service are integral part of the set-up of the programme.
The Management Unit is lead
by Prof. Aldo FANCHIOTTI. Cecilia CHIAPERO is the project manager for
Balkan countries, Laura del CAMPO is the project manager for
Mediterranean countries. Iris PFHAL is the job placement expert. Ester
SELVAGGIO and Silvia CARDONE are respectively responsible for the
administrative and technical secretariat.
Prospective applicants have
to apply to the Italian Embassies in their country of residence.

The Interuniversity Research Centre for Sustainable Development
(CIRPS)
of the University of
Rome “La Sapienza”
The
Interuniversity Research Centre on Developing Countries (CIRPS) was
founded in April 1988 for co-ordinating, at University level, the
Italian development co-operation activities. Originated by the
Universities of Cassino, "Della Tuscia" of Viterbo, and "La Sapienza"
of Rome, CIRPS now includes other Italian Universities such as Sassari,
Macerata, Perugia and Torino, while adhesion of Universities of
Macerata, Palermo and Ferrara is in the final phase of ratification.
CIRPS
headquarter is located in Palazzo Doria Pamphilj of Valmontone (50 km
from Rome). Because of the current restoration of the building, which
is already underway and to which some of its members are also
contributing, CIRPS has offices made available by the University of
Rome "La Sapienza". CIRPS also has operational branches abroad: a
permanent unit in Bruxelles and many branches activated in relation to
on going projects (Angola, Argentina, Eritrea, Morocco, Tunis).
The
institutional aim of the centre is the promotion and the
implementation of co-operation activities with developing countries,
the management of initiatives research, training, updating
information, and consulting services, through the joint effort of the
participating universities.
We herewith confirm that the
initiative no. 463 of October 7, 2002 , facilitated by CIRPS –
University of Rome “La Sapienza”, has now been approved and become
effective.

to officials and technical staff working in public authorities of the
following Balkan and Mediterranean countries: Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia,
Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Palestine, Slovenia, Croatia,
Bosnia Herzegovina, Macedonia, Albania, Serbia and Montenegro.
The initiative for the project
accrued from the awareness that the fast evolving international
relations between local authorities and central administrations of the
Balkan and Mediterranean States require professional support, training
and exchange of experience and knowledge, which CIRPS – Interuniversity
Research Centre on Sustainable Development - aims at facilitating
through NeBaMe.
