AJC Transatlantic Institute (TAI)
EU Transparency Register
95713206856-14 First registered on 03 Oct 2011
Goals / Remit
The AJC Transatlantic Institute (TAI) in Brussels works to strengthen the transatlantic bond and fosters dialogue between the US and the EU on issues of mutual concern in the fields of global security, Middle East peace, and human rights. TAI engages decision-makers across the political spectrum in all three major European institutions—the European Council, the European Commission and the European Parliament—as well as with NATO and the diplomatic missions to the EU, think tanks, journalists, and others in the civil society sector. We combine public education programming with public affairs/strategic communications outreach to provide our constituencies with information and analysis designed to help them formulate the policies best suited to protect European and US security and advance pluralism and democracy in the world.
