Strategy and Innovation Unit

The European Parliament stands for European democracy. We help connect it to people.

We work to provide complete and impartial information to citizens and media about the European Parliament and assist our 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.

The Strategy and Innovation Unit supports the Director-General for Communication by preparing decisions and ensuring their implementation. The unit acts as a hub for strategic coordination by offering support and advice to DG COMM management. The unit is also the main contact point for relations with other Directorates-General and political authorities.
