MEDINA - MEDiterranean by INternet Access is a Euro-Mediterranean Project co-financed by the European Commission within the Eumedis Initiative – Information Society (MEDA funds).

Medina, co-ordinated by IMED - The Mediterranean Institute, involves a vast and organised partnership, composed of 14 countries: 7 Member States (Italy, France, Greece, Austria, Belgium, Malta and Cyprus) and 7 Mediterranean Partner Countries (Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Lebanon, Jordan, the Palestinian Authority, Syria).

The main objective of the project is the design and the pilot development of a "federation" of nine integrated national Web sites and the creation of the “MEDINA Portal” in order to promote cultural tourism in different Mediterranean countries.

The national Web sites and the Portal will be oriented towards both end-users, directly organising their tourism, and professional operators looking for specific information. The national Web sites will organise information according to local points of view, interests and focuses. All the national Web sites, however, will share a common methodological approach, a common design (in terms of structure and content topics) and compatible implementation.
