The Centre for European Studies attaches great importance to issuing research papers, policy briefs and publications to raise the awareness of the European citizens about the most significant topics on the European political agenda. As the official think tank of the EPP, the Centre for European Studies monitors, analyses and contributes to the debate related to the policies of the EU and relevant for both the expert level as for the wider European public.
Our research papers and policy briefs cover a wide range of political issues and fall under one of our six main research themes:

New Societal Challenges
The Centre of the European Studies also offers various publications with its member foundations exploring a wide range of issues in European politics. Covering a wide spectrum of crucial topics on the European political agenda, these publications are issued in English, but often also in the native language of the member foundation, in order to guarantee a wide diffusion throughout Europe.
CES produces research papers, policy briefs and other publications which react to the current issues and with a strong emphasis on policy recommendations.
Our publications focus on the main European and global political issues from the point of view of the core values of the European People’s Party family and the European centre-right.
