The Croatian Prime Minister, Andrej Plenković, will officially open the twelfth international Forum Dubrovnik Forum 2017, entitled "Adriatic-Mediterranean Cooperation and Security in South-East Europe", on Saturday, July 1st, 2107, at 9 pm at Hotel Dubrovnik Palace.

The Dubrovnik Forum will be dedicated to the most current topics. The focus of this year's Dubrovnik Forum is on the Adriatic-Mediterranean area, which is a geographical point of contact, and at the same time the intersection of the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. The focus will be on addressing the common challenges of security and stability in the Mediterranean and neighbouring areas by strengthening cooperation and fostering dialogue, while also addressing the opportunities for more concrete action.

The Dubrovnik Forum will also focus on opportunities to develop additional business opportunities in the eastern Mediterranean and on intercultural dialogue with a focus on mobility and youth education.
