The Secretariat
The Secretariat of the Committee of the Mediterranean Forestry Questions - Silva Mediterranea coordinates the activities of Member Countries and animates the dialogue and involvement of Member Countries through their focal points.
The secretariat is not a bureaucratic organ. It is run by all its Members who collectively support it by rotating personnel irregularly between its Members.
For the period of 2020 to 2024, the Secretariat is held by a nominated unit from the Council of Agricultural Research and Economics (CREA), the leading Italian research organization dedicated to agri-food supply chains under the supervision of the Ministry of Agriculture, food sovereignty and forests (MASAF) (Ministero dell'Agricoltura, della sovranità alimentare e delle foreste).
