EUROCONTROL<br />
EUROCONTROL, the European<br />
Organisation for the Safety of<br />
Air Navigation, is a civil-military<br />
intergovernmental organisation with<br />
38 Member States across the European<br />
continent as well as the European<br />
Community. Its primary objective is<br />
the development of a seamless pan-<br />
European air traffic management (ATM)<br />
system.<br />
The Agency, EUROCONTROL’s executive<br />
body, is organised in several business<br />
units in seven European cities and its<br />
Headquarters is based in Brussels.<br />
Up to 12 languages are used in<br />
EUROCONTROL’s governing bodies<br />
and in some of the main consultative<br />
groups.<br />
These are: English, French, German,<br />
Dutch, Portuguese, Greek, Turkish,<br />
Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Spanish<br />
and Italian. The official languages of the<br />
EUROCONTROL Organisation are all the<br />
languages of its Member States while<br />
the working languages of the Agency<br />
are English and French.<br />
EUROCONTROL has six staff interpreters<br />
and recruits up to 500 freelance<br />
interpreter/days per year. All together<br />
they provide 660 interpreter/days per<br />
year for its bilingual and multilingual<br />
meetings.<br />
