Attention! In case of an air alert, visitors of the event can use the shelter located in the basement of the Ukrainian House ( Ukraine Crisis Media Center, Ukrainian House, 1st floor. 2 Khreshchatyk street, Kyiv 0100)

At the end of 2023, EESC President Oliver Röpke launched the initiative to establish the status of Enlargement Candidate Members to engage civil society representatives more actively in EESC activities. This is an honorary title that shows support and respect for the civil society representatives in the EU candidate countries without granting them EESC member status.

Questions for discussion:

  • Ukraine on the way to EU membership: the role and methods of influence of civil society through the EESC (Enlargement Candidate Members and EESC members)
  • Civil society engagement in the European integration process
