CEIPA (Centre for European and International Policy Action) is an independent think-tank committed to promoting public debate on major European and international policy issues. Central to CEIPA’s work is the belief that providing a platform for informed debate, the exchange of ideas and the search for common ground between EU policy-makers on one side, and non-state actors and European citizens on the other, is vital to obtain the necessary broad support to underpin EU democratic governance and cohesion.
