Who we are
The European Parliament stands for democracy. We help connect it to people.
This entails providing complete and impartial information to citizens and media about the European Parliament, and assisting Members in their communication activities.
The Directorate-General for Communication (DG COMM) strives to reach and engage the right audience with the right message at the right time and in doing so, deliver world-class communication. We are committed communication professionals coming from various professional and academic backgrounds.
In Copenhagen, we are a well-functioning team, who work with creating awareness about the work of the European Parliament and its 15 Danish members. We do everything from assisting media and citizens who search for knowledge about the European Parliament, to arranging seminars, conferences and briefings. We work closely with other EU institutions and a number of NGOs and public institutions in Denmark and abroad.
