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.

Testimonials
"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

"As a citizenship studies scholar and activist, I now use the EUDO site regularly especially when I am asked to comment on various developments in citizenship law and politics. I really don't know of a comparably rich and well designed source of information on citizenship laws"

Engin Isin, Chief Editor of the journal Citizenship Studies
