Trans-Atlantic Parliamentary Group

Think tanks and research institutions

This organization has conducted meetings between MEPs and Members of Congress to work through issues such as trade, defense, etc., and build relationships and familiarity between the institutions. Meetings are hosted annually in Washington, D.C., via our organization, and periodically in Brussels. A limited scholarship for foreign affairs collegiate students is in development for EU trainees and Congressional staff alike.

During the COVID19 period, we have been able to conduct video conferences, to ensure continuity of contact between both entities. This included coordination of strategic discussions leading the U.S. Congress to adopt rules and technical procedures for remote functionality based upon the EU Parliament experience (remote and proxy voting). We are back to an in-person format, with events, direct meetings, MEP delegation assistance, and other activities planned for 2026 both in Brussels and Washington, D.C.
