Emerging Europe Council

The Emerging Europe Council is an independent advisory body to the board of directors of Emerging Europe.

The Honorary Members of the Council include leading opinion formers, senior business executives, scholars, former senior representatives of international organisations, civil society and the world of diplomacy and art. The Council meets once a year in June, at the Leaders’ Meeting and Awards, to discuss emerging Europe’s strategic issues and their implications for the work and future development of the organisation.

The Members also nominate and choose the laureates of the Professor Günter Verheugen Remarkable Achievement Award and Princess Marina Sturdza Achievement Award for individuals from outside the region who have contributed to the social, economic and democratic development of the 23 emerging Europe countries, and for those from within emerging Europe who have contributed to that same development globally.

Currently, the Council has 14 members, seven women and seven men.
