This policy brief explores the evolving nexus between energy security and energy transition within Italy’s foreign policy towards North Africa, providing recommendations on how Italy can play a leading role – including at a European level – in promoting the energy transition in the Mediterranean region through its relations with North African countries, both at a bilateral and multilateral level.
The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) describes the Mediterranean as a climate change hotspot. Despite relatively low levels of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the effects of global warming are felt more rapidly in this region than anywhere else in the world, with temperatures expected to rise by 20% above the global average.
