Mistrals
MISTRALS ("Integrated Mediterranean Studies at Regional and Local Scales") is a research program dedicated to the study of the Mediterranean basin and its surroundings, with the aim to "better understand the impact of global factors on this region and to anticipate changes over a century of living conditions". Established in August 2008 under the auspices of the CNRS, it quickly became a collaborative program of many research organisations from France and other Mediterranean countries.
