“Dismantling Mediterranean Myths” is the Center for Mediterranean Integration’s new blog series. Using facts and statistics, it confronts misconceptions about the region. By opening up barriers, the series hopes to reframe, refresh and advance the thinking on Mediterranean issues.

The inaugural issue focuses on the myth of “Islamic Fertility” and is based on a contribution by Youssef Courbage, Research Director of the National Institute for Demographic Studies (INED) in Paris.
