Who We Are

EUNIC stands for the European Union National Institutes for Culture.
 
EUNIC is a partnership of currently 29 organisations from 26 countries in the European Union.  The members are in the public sector and operate at "arms length" from their governments and work internationally.
 
Within the EUNIC network they work in the fields of languages, of cultural cooperation, in intercultural dialogue and in culture, climate and ecology.
 
EUNIC operates in a variety of ways.  At city and country level its members come together to form "clusters" and to increasingly work together.  A new direction for EUNIC is to work on major multi-country projects.. see the projects section of this website.  EUNIC also engages with multi-lateral organisations such as the European Commission and the Council of Europe.  EUNIC chairs the EC's civil society platform for multilingualism.
