Our goals and services
Our goal is to provide academics, governments, international organisations and NGOs with information for research and evidence-based evaluation of public policies.
We do not offer information or counselling to individuals interested in acquiring the citizenship of a particular country and we do not encourage experts in our network to answer such requests.

"The European Union Democracy Observatory is an excellent source of information on citizenship in Europe. Working as I do on justice and civil liberties issues in the European Parliament, I find the EUDO website very useful for the research, case-law and news it provides"Sarah Ludford, MEP, Liberal Democrat
"The EUDO observatory is a brilliant tool for anyone concerned about Europe's multifarious approaches to the concept of nationality and citizenship. Academic study, political debate and legal certainty are all helped by this observatory"Andrew Duff, MEP, Liberal Democrat
