Friends of Europe is a Brussels-based think tank that supports policy development through open debate and cross-sector collaboration. It promotes a multilateral view of globalization and a modern social contract anchored in peace, prosperity, and sustainability. The organization seeks to connect policymakers, business leaders, civil society representatives, and citizens to break down silos and build trust across communities, with a focus on social justice and equality. Its work aims to generate bold, innovative policy recommendations to revitalize the European project. Based in the Brussels-Capital Region, the group operates as a mid-sized think tank with a European and global reach. It engages a broad range of stakeholders to inform policy and public discussion across Europe and beyond. In 2021, Friends of Europe partnered with the Centre for Democracy and Development to host a debate on security developments in the Sahel and to present research on Europe and the Sahel.
