The EUROLINK-House of Europe was founded as an advocacy-training and lobby non-governmental agency (think-tank) in March 1997, part of the international network of Europe houses and academies, active in the field of European and trans-Atlantic integration since 1962.
Our non-governmental organisation is an independent and non-partisan educational/ information foundation, aimed to deepen and to promote the European Idea, the aspirations of a United Europe, a new type-security system through a specific Romanian and Central-European contribution to this unique process.
Main Objectives:
• to provide all levels of information/educational programmes, professional training and highly qualified consultance in all fields of European Integration;
• to open public debates, as well as to launch information, promotion, advocacy and lobby campaigns dedicated to the acceleration of the EU integration process;
• to support social and humanitarian aid actions in order to alleviate the effects of the economic transition on disadvantaged groups.
• European Joint Task Force (2012) - working/supporting structure in favor of a radical improvement of the implementation of the EU funded projects;
• Black Sea-Danube Regional Network for Social & Economic Innovation (2011) - involved in the consultation for the implementation of the Danube and Black Sea EU Strategies;
• Regional Centre for Innovation in the Black Sea Basin - Danube Region “FuturICT Bucharest” (2011) - Socio-Economic Innovation Hub for complex IC&T projects;
• Knowledge Management Community (2009) - network of KM Specialists & Experts, following the series of events on KM techniques for EU projects;
• EU-RO Clearing Funds (2007) - Platform for Action & Rapid Intervention of the Civil Society in favour of stimulating the absorption of European Funds
• CEFTAC Platform (2004) - Central European Advocacy for a Fair and Transparent Competition;
• REGENT Centre (2001) - South Eastern European Platform aimed to promote the public-private partnership in the field of local/regional development;
• Centre of Excellence (1998) - career counselling and training program for Romanian students and young graduates;
• Interdisciplinary Reflection Group (1997) - responsible for Think-Tank activities and Research Studies & Papers.
Thanks to our previous institutional partnership with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, especially with the National Coordinator of the EU Strategy for the Danube Region, we could contribute to the extension and the deepening of further identification of concrete tools and adaptive projects in order to improve the entire role of the network and to strengthen the cooperation between public authorities and the concerned Romanian NGO sector.
We aim to better collaborate in cooperative projects with other foreign partners and promote in this way common objectives already assumed together with the Black Sea University Foundation. Also, we estimate that we could increase in this way the impact of the initiatives and projects coordinated by EUROLINK-House of Europe via the Black Sea - Danube Regional Network and its Regional Excellence Centre.
