This year, PriMed is making a stop in Egypt and Italy as part of the 2026 Mediterranean Youth Prize. This tour allows young people to discover and discuss the films selected in the Mediterranean Youth Prize category, while promoting dialogue between cultures.
In Egypt : Alexandria, Marsa Matrouh, Le Caire, Tanta, Mansoura, Port-Saïd, Fayoum, Luxor with the cooperation of CAF – Bibliotheca Alexandrina
During our stopover in Egypt, we had the opportunity to screen the selected documentaries. The screenings generated considerable interest among participants and partner institutions, leading to enriching discussions on contemporary issues. These exchanges fostered the sharing of ideas, sparked the viewers’ curiosity, and encouraged the development of critical thinking.
Thanks to the collaboration of the CAF (Centre d’Accueil et de Formation) at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, teachers actively supported this initiative, demonstrating the importance placed on media literacy and the promotion of the Francophonie. The interest shown by participants and institutions underscores the relevance of this project and its role in cultural and educational dialogue. This experience encourages us to continue these awareness-raising, learning, and sharing activities. Below you will find the list of institutions that participated in this initiative.
