European Professionals Network (EPN) is a Brussels-based civil society initiative that was set up in 2009. EPN acknowledges that people in professional life not only need to increase their competences but also equally be keen on their personal and social empowerment by actively participating in the society they live. We believe that values such as democratic participation, active citizenship and constructive engagement are extremely important. EPN tries to realise these objectives of awareness-raising on European matters through seminars, conferences and workshops.
