European House

Mission & Goals

European House (EH) is a civil society organisation set up in 1990. Its main objective is to develop active European citizenship and identity based on shared values, foster EU ownership among citizens and promote participatory democracy. EH is an active player on European level: it promotes awareness-raising debates, contributes to EU agenda setting and fosters civic engagement. EH seeks to contribute to the creation of an active, strong and influential civil society both in HU and Europe using synergies. EH is a dedicated player in education about active European citizenship with a wide network of schools. EH regularly organises debates on the future of the EU and the cost of no-Europe. Challenging populist or Eurosceptic views is one of the priorities of the EH together with the promotion of the European Solidarity Corps. EH believes that the EU institutions should be more citizens' friendly. EH promotes contacts and interactions among CSOs of the 4 EU macro-regions.
