EUDO CITIZENSHIP is supported and internally evaluated by an Advisory Board.

For the period January 2009 – June 2010, EUDO CITIZENSHIP was mainly financed by the EUCITAC project funded by the European Fund for the Integration of the non-EU immigrants (EIF, Directorate General for Freedom, Security and Justice of the European Commission).

EUDO CITIZENSHIP has been selected by the European Fund for the Integration of non-EU immigrants for financing of our new research project Access to citizenship and its impact on immigrant integration (ACIT).

A second source of continuous support for EUDO CITIZENSHIP since 2009 has been the CITMODES project of the British Academy.

EUDO CITIZENSHIP builds on earlier projects analysing citizenship laws and policies in Europe, both in old and new member states of the EU.

EUDO CITIZENSHIP was launched at the January 2009 conference in Florence.
