We’d never been on an all-inclusive family holiday before, but after a week, we were converts... In Cape Verde, we got a proper, relaxing break, with all the convenience and ease of a package holiday, but without any of the crowds.

They are adhering less and less to the Mediterranean Diet, despite the fact that it is the basis of their identity and one of the major assets of the region. Pressures on natural resources and the emergence of new private actors are compounding the complexity of diet-related issues. THE MEDITERRANEAN DIET > Already the subject of widespread sociocultural and scientific debate and research, the Mediterranean Diet merits reconsideration from the political point of view FOR SUSTAINABLE REGIONAL given the growing awareness of the strategic dimension of agriculture and the crucial role played by food production in the stability and development of societies. DEVELOPMENT This diet, whose health-promoting virtues are widely recognised and which UNESCO has now listed as part of the intangible cultural heritage of humanity, is now raising questions in the fields of environmental responsibility and political action to promote greater regional cooperation.
