Goals / Remit
The European Centre for Public Affairs (The ECPA) is a Brussels-based not-for-profit think-tank, whose mission is to “promote excellence in public affairs”.
The ECPA membership is primarily comprised of Corporates and Trade Associations, but also NGOs and Institutions, as well as Knowledge Partners (academics and consultants).
In practice, the ECPA activities allow our members to:
• “Share best practice”: Our Corporate Circle enables our senior members to “stop and think” in small groups, discuss challenges facing their organizations/sectors in a safe environment and exchange best practice in managing these issues, whether internal or external.
• Develop Professional & Organizational Skills: our regular one-day training courses are delivered by experienced public affairs practitioners and are limited in numbers to ensure the acquisition of practical skills across the organization and interaction between the participants. The ECPA also provides dedicated "in-house" (...)Main EU files targeted
