This year the IIEA will celebrate 30 years since the Institute of International and European Affairs was founded in 1991. Since then, the IIEA has played a key role informing public discourse on European affairs in Ireland, through numerous referenda campaigns, the financial and economic crisis, and more recently, the UK’s withdrawal from the EU. Today, our mission to share ideas and shape policy, remains as relevant as it was 30 years ago. In the age of misinformation clarity is sorely need in public debates, as are independent platforms for public debate, analysis and reflection.
About UsThe IIEA is Ireland’s leading European & International Affairs think tank. We are an independent, not-for-profit organisation with charitable status.
Our role is to identify key European and international policy trends, which will inform the work of Ireland’s decision makers and business leaders, and enrich the public debate on Ireland’s role in the EU and on the global stage.
