MISSION
The University Association
for Contemporary European Studies (UACES) is committed to
exchanging ideas on Europe. It provides an
independent forum for
informed debate and a
clearing house for information about European affairs. It is directly involved
in promoting research and establishing teaching and research networks.
Since 1969, UACES has brought together academics involved in researching and teaching on Europe with practitioners active in European affairs. It encourages people from all disciplines to become involved.
