The European Institute

The European Institute is the leading Washington-based public-policy organization devoted to transatlantic affairs. It provides an independent forum for US and European government and corporate decision makers, officials from multilateral organizations, foreign and economic policy analysts, and expert journalists to exchange information, develop innovative policy options, and create new professional working relationships.

The European Institute's role is to encourage the renewal of the transatlantic relationship to respond to new challenges. Its programs address cutting edge issues and bring together key constituencies in Europe and the United States. Our mission is to act as an early warning system and a mechanism for conflict resolution.

A non-partisan forum, The European Institute facilitates common understanding on: Defense and Security; Trade and Investment; the State of Transatlantic Relations; Financial and Monetary Affairs; Energy, Environment and Transportation; EU Enlargement and Institutional Reform; Food and Biotechnology; E-Commerce and Telecommunications; Aeronautics and Space; Transatlantic Governance; Intercultural Differences; and Humanitarian Policies.
