Mission & Goals
The Transatlantic Consumer Dialogue (TACD) is a forum of US and EU consumer organisations which develops and agrees on joint consumer policy recommendations to the US government and European Union to promote the consumer interest in EU and US policy making.
EU Legislative Interests
EU initiatives and policies in the fields of Food, Intellectual Property, Competition, Digital, Trade, Financial Services, Product Safety, Chemicals and Competition.
Communication Activities
The TACD Policy Committees produce policy papers with included recommendations in relation to the predominant themes of their work plans. They also issue statements and letters to governments, and respond to public consultations whenever necessary. The Policy Committees are made up of experts from TACD’s 70+ EU and U.S. member organisations and allow for in-depth and technical discussions within the fields that they address. The Policy Committees are a major forum for identifying common issues and challenges, information exchange and sharing expertise and best practice among consumer groups from both sides of the Atlantic.
