What is the European
Advocacy Academy?
The European Advocacy Academy (EAA) is a semi-annual, international, political training event. Its aim is to help relevant stakeholders learn about and better understand the European dimensions of developments affecting the areas of freedom, family, and life.
The EAA is the only programme of its kind, providing both substantive formation on critical issues and practical training to help leaders develop the skills they need to increase their influence.
Each EAA training programme has a specific focus. These may include effective campaigning, communications, the functioning of the European Union, policymaking, etc.

The Academy has had a great impact [on me] because now i have the opportunity to connect with many people from different countries and learn about issues that they face in their own countries – and also understand that what is happening in my country it is not something particular but is happening elsehere.
Vasna Radeka, Serbia
I got a lot of information and [aquired] knowledge to enter into public sphere in my country… with more confidence.

The EAA taught me how to communicate on life, family, and freedom in a more coherent way. It was also a great networking opportunity with people who work in the same field. The most important part for me was media training.
Sara Portelli, Malta
The EAA is much needed because it instils the right values, equips leaders to take our message to the public, and brings together relevant stakeholders who are supporting each other in their work! For me, two things were important: having support from other like-minded people and, second, networking, meeting, and connecting. It was a truly wonderful experience!
Antonio Pimenta de Brito, Portugal
The EAA is very important because it brings together people with different backgrounds who all want to participate in the public debate about life, family and freedom. It is great that we can come together and share our specific experiences. It is also important to have the right tools – in order to be a voice in our society and have specific ways of engaging with the media.
