Mission
We strive to ensure that European affairs with a Danish perspective become more visible in national policy debates.
Through evidence-based inquiry, EUROPA aims to substantiate and improve the foundation on which policy decisions with a bearing on Denmark’s position in Europe are being made – irrespective of political ideology.
