Mediterranean diet is much more than food itself. It promotes social interaction, and with it a variety of knowledge, songs, beliefs, traditions and legends have developed. It is rooted in the great respect for the area and its biodiversity, and it provides for the protection and development of traditional activities and trades related to fisheries and the agriculture of the Mediterranean communities.
That is why in 2013 the Mediterranean diet was inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Spain, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Morocco, Portugal, and Croatia and each country is represented by specific local communities: the islands of Brač and Hvar (Croatia), Tavira (Portugal), Soria (Spain), Chefchaouen (Morocco), Cilento (Italy), Koroni (Greece) and Agros (Cyprus).
