EU Alumni Global Network: Staying connected

08.06.2026

The EU Alumni Global Network connects individuals worldwide who have benefited from EU programmes or participated in EU initiatives.

 

EU Alumni come from diverse professional backgrounds, including community builders, journalists, researchers, and cultural professionals, and share the common experience of engaging with the EU.

The network provides opportunities to maintain ties with the EU, whether through its delegations around the world or its various people-to-people programmes. It also serves as a platform for alumni to share experiences, collaborate, and stay informed about EU foreign and security policy.
