Workshops & Special weeks

Since 2000, EurActiv has provided in-depth coverage of key events related to the European Union. In addition to our regular news and policy analysis, we provide background LinksDossiers, and extended analysis during designated Special Weeks.

Additionally, Fondation EurActiv hosts lunchtime Stakeholder Workshops. These often precede a Special Week and help inform the research for a EurActiv LinksDossier. These lunchtime workshops are held in the EurActiv conference room and aim to gather the relevant stakeholders (EU Institutions, Corporations, Industry Associations and NGOs) around the table to network and debate. Even though a EurActiv journalist is always present, the discussion among the stakeholders is held off the record.

For information on how your organisation can partner with Fondation EurActiv on a Stakeholder Workshop or Special Week, please contact account.manager.pa@euractiv.com.
