Founded in Rabat (Morocco) in 1994, the
Union of Mediterranean Architects (UMAR) draws together
national organisations representative of architects from
countries in and around the Mediterranean basin.
It was their awareness of belonging to a common culture, a
culture shaped over thousands of years into this birthplace
of civilisations that is the Mediterranean basin, that
prompted architects organisations to create UMAR.
An instrument for exchanging views and information, the
association thus encourages relationships of friendship,
solidarity and confraternity between all architects.
UMAR endeavours to reveal Architecture to be of public
interest, Architecture and the organisation of space being
expressions of culture.
The Union claims its role as spokesperson for the 300,000
architects of the Mediterranean basin in dealings with all
official institutions.
The registered office of the Union of
Mediterranean Architects is in Malta.
The two official languages of UMAR are English and French.
