The Brussels Liaison Office contributes to the strategic management and overall communication policy of Eurofound towards its stakeholders at EU level.
Its mission is to:
strengthen the visibility and impact of Eurofound research on policymaking at EU level by developing and broadening the cooperation with the EU institutions (European Commission, European Parliament, European Economic and social Committee, Committee of the Regions) and with representatives of the social partners and civil society. Such cooperation may take the form of ad hoc information requests based on existing Eurofound data.
monitor developments in EU policymaking on behalf of Eurofound.
