- Structural support for European public policy research organisations (think-tanks) This measure is designed to strengthen the institutional capacity of European public policy research organisations (think tanks). - Structural support for civil society organisations at the European level This measure provides civil society organisations, which operate with a European dimension, with the capacity and stability to develop their activities at the European level. - Support for projects initiated by civil society organisations The aim of this measure is to support cooperation through concrete projects by civil society organisations from different participating countries. Action 3 – Together for Europe: This action focuses on deepening the concept of active European citizenship and at promoting its understanding all over Europe, thereby contributing to bringing Europe closer to its citizens, through three sets of measures: - High-visibility events This measure will support events organised by the Commission, where appropriate in cooperation with the member states or other relevant partners, which help to increase citizens’ sense of belonging to the same community and their commitment to the European project. - Studies In order to gain a better understanding of active citizenship at the European level the Commission carries out studies, surveys and opinion polls. - Information and dissemination tools Comprehensive information on the various activities of the Programme, on other European actions related to citizenship and on other relevant initiatives, will be provided through different dissemination tools. Action 4 – Active European Remembrance: This action aims at preserving the main sites and archives associated with deportations and at commemorating the victims of Nazism and Stalinism, as a means of moving on from the past and building the future. 3.1.2. Who operates the ECP The European Commission: The European Commission is ultimately responsible for the smooth running of the ECP. It manages the budget and sets priorities, targets and criteria for the programme on an ongoing basis, following consultation with the Programme Committee. Furthermore, it guides and monitors the general implementation, follow-up and evaluation of the programme at the European level. The European Commission relies on an Executive Agency to carry this out. The Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA): The EACEA was established in 2005 and is responsible for the implementation of most of the actions of the Europe for Citizens Programme. It is responsible for the management of the complete life cycle of these projects. The EACEA also oversees the Europe for Citizens Points (PEC) whereby member states are responsible for ensuring targeted, effective grass-roots dissemination of practical information on the programme implementation. A list of PECs can be found on the EACEA website (http://eacea.ec.europa.eu). The member states and other participating countries: The EU member states are also involved in the implementation of the ECP, in particular through the Programme Committee, to which they appoint representatives. And, of course, they also host the PECs to inform their citizens first-hand about the programme. Last but not least municipalities, councils, associations, NGOs etc. are also involved at the national level in the development and orientation of the EPC. 54

Exercise Please find out where your national PEC is and make contact with its staff via email, telephone or by visiting it in person.
