Affiliation
EGEA, together with seven other European associations of the automotive aftermarket, is an active member of the AFCAR Alliance, the Alliance for the Freedom of Car Repair in the European Union. Its goal is to safeguard free competition in the automotive market for service, maintenance and repair and to represent independent aftermarket operators in the field of unrestricted access to technical information.
EGEA participates in the Right to Repair Campaign (R2RC). Initiated by AFCAR in 2007, this Europe-wide campaign is a major communication tool that aims at maintaining a level-playing field in the automotive aftermarket, advocating for the access to technical information, spare parts, multi-brand diagnostic tools and test equipment, and training needed to ensure quality repair and maintenance services, at affordable prices. More on www.r2rc.eu.
EGEA is also an NGO in roster consultative status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
