Modes of operation

EGIPP organizes regular international conferences and research workshops, as well as research seminars at which staff, PhD students and visiting speakers present papers, and ‘roundtables’ at which staff debate topical European issues and developments and engage with research users.

It also runs two PhD student training sessions each year at which students present their research. EGIPP enjoys close links to the European Commission Office in Wales, the British Council in Wales, the National Assembly for Wales and the Welsh Assembly Government. Recent speakers have included Professor Vivien Schmidt (Boston University) and Professor Jolyon Howarth (Yale University). As leader of a thematic area within the FP6 EU-CONSENT Network of Excellence, Kenneth Dyson organised a series of recent research workshops that brought together EGIPP staff with international experts and policy practitioners. Each led to an edited volume.
