AEDE
The European Association of Teachers
AEDE was founded in 1956. AEDE is pursuing the aim of its founders: to be a network of European contacts, ideas and activities, working towards giving the younger generations an education that will equip them to grow into a European society capable of tackling the formidable and complex problems that it will need to resolve.
COFACE
The Confederation of Family Organisations in the European Union
COFACE was founded in 1958 as the European Action Committee of the International Union of Family Organisations (IUFO). Over time, it gained more independence, and in 1979 turned itself into an international not-for-profit voluntary organisation: Confederation of Family Organisations in the European Community, now the European Union. COFACE is a non-political, non-religious-based organisation which links together general and single-issue national family organisations. COFACE currently has 60 member organisations across the Member States of the European Union and gives a voice to many millions of parents and children.
Generation Europe Foundation
Generation Europe Foundation was created in 1995 with the aim of challenging the difficulty in finding channels to communicate messages of a 'serious' nature to young people. A unique answer is provided by the Foundation (a non-political and non-commercial organisation) which has created a practical tool for meeting this challenge in the form of a school diary, called the 'Europa Diary'.
OBESSU
The Organising Bureau of European School Student Unions
OBESSU is the European platform of national school student organisations and unions active in general secondary and secondary vocational education. It was founded in April 1975 in Dublin, Ireland, and brings together member and observer organisations from more than 25 European countries.
