ECAM Council Summit
Rome 2021

The ECAM Council aims to promote and develop constructive dialogue, new partnerships and strong cooperation between Europe, Africa and the MENA region, with Italy taking on the role as host nation. Dialogue and cultural awareness are not only the pillars of stable social, economic and political systems, they are also the key to conflict resolution and political deadlock. The ambitious objective of the ECAM Council is to contribute to the improvement of international relations through a series of high-level annual summits that bring together dedicated and creative individuals, governments and organisations that are willing to facilitate open and honest dialogue on such issues as healthcare, education and philanthropically funded projects. The forum also aims to take tangible steps towards encouraging investment between Europe, Africa and the Middle East in many areas, however, special focus is given to healthcare in all of its facets.
