This agreement allows Lebanon to officially join the Partnership for Research and Innovation in the Mediterranean Area (PRIMA). It amends and supplements an existing scientific and technological cooperation agreement between the EU and Lebanon.

The agreement directly affects researchers, innovators, and institutions in both the European Union and Lebanon. It aims to foster collaboration on research and innovation projects relevant to the Mediterranean region.

This formalizes Lebanon's participation in PRIMA, building on the existing EU-Lebanon scientific cooperation. It sets out the specific terms and conditions for Lebanon's involvement in this joint research initiative.

The European Parliament has given its consent to the conclusion of this agreement, following a request from the Council. The agreement will now proceed to the next steps for formal adoption.
