Who does Eurydice serve?

The Eurydice Network acts first and foremost on behalf of all persons directly or indirectly engaged in educational policy-making, whether at national, regional, local or European level. The Network contributes to cooperation in education by circulating information on education systems and policies and by producing studies on subjects of common interest.

Teachers and those carrying out research into education, institutions for teacher education, library resource centres, and all professionals engaged in activities involving mobility and exchanges with other countries may also find that the Network’s output is a useful source of information.

How can I be kept informed of new Eurydice publications?

The Eurydice European Unit and most Eurydice National Units ensure that persons who so wish are regularly informed about the availability of new publications.

If you wish to be kept informed by the Eurydice European Unit about new publications (by email around once a month), please send the following details to info@eurydice.org:
