07.01.2020

On 7 January 2020, ELI’s President Christiane Wendehorst and Secretary General Vanessa Wilcox met Head of Unit for EU and Fundamental Issues at the Federal Ministry of Republic of Austria for Europe, Integration and Foreign Affairs, Gerhard Eisl.

Eisl met ELI’s President and Secretary General to discuss possible avenues for cooperation, including with respect to ELI’s upcoming Annual Conference and Meetings that will take place in Budapest from 9–11 September. While discussing ELI‘s current and prospective projects, topics such as the rule of law, digitalisation and climate change were found to be of common interest and could be the subject of further cooperation. ELI looks forward to forging closer ties with the Austrian Federal Ministry for Europe, Integration and Foreign Affairs.
