The Cicero Foundation was founded in Maastricht
in 1992 - the year in which the Treaty of Maastricht was signed. The Foundation
is an independent Dutch nonprofit organisation and think tank whose aim it is
to provide a broad, global forum to discuss issues that are of central importance
to European integration.
Through conferences, international seminars
for experts and publications, the Foundation hopes to contribute to a deep and
fundamental discussion on the future developments within Europe and the Atlantic
World. The Foundation actively supports the integration of the Central and Eastern
European Countries into the European Union. Therefore special attention is paid
to issues connected to integrating these countries into the EU and NATO. Scholarships
are available for scientific researchers from the CEECs.
INTERNATIONAL ADVISORY BOARD
The Cicero Foundation has an international Advisory
Board whose task it is to advise on the programming and the contents of the
seminars organised in the series Great Debates, in order to maintain and guarantee
the high quality of the series.
