Since 1989, CEDAG, the European council for associations of general interest (Comité européen des associations d’intérêt général) is a European network that provides a voice for the non-profit sector at the European level and to European institutions, on specific issues which are common to all non-profit organizations and associations. CEDAG aims to defend and represent non-profit associations in Europe as providers of services of general interest and actors of the civil society; as well as to bridge national association with EU institutions on topics such as social economy, social services, EU fundings, the recognition of non-profit organisations, the role of associations in civil dialogue and in civil society.
