Founded in 1983, the Red Cross EU Office represents National Societies in the European Union, and in Norway, as well as the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), before the institutions of the European Union. It works to increase the influence of the Red Cross on European Union policies that have an impact on the interests of vulnerable people.
The Red Cross EU Office provides support to its members by sharing information, building partnerships and facilitating access to EU funding. Its budget is
funded through contributions from members.
Its overall direction and priorities are set by an Annual Meeting of its members, with a Coordination Group ensuring follow up and support throughout the year.
Staff numbers range from 15 to 20 and include seconded national experts from members (“staff on loan”).

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.
