In their own words

“The European Public Affairs Consultancies Association (EPACA) is an association of public affairs consultancies working with EU institutions. It was launched at a General Assembly on 28 January 2005, following a consultation process among all signatories of a professional Code of Conduct.”

“This Code has been upheld since the creation of EPACA and continues to serve as a foundation for ethical standards in the EU public affairs marketplace. The main objective of EPACA is to advocate for stronger and more effective transparency regulations and to foster a relationship of trust between interest representatives, policymakers, and the general public. EPACA also provides training to its members to enhance their professional skills. Its members represent a significant proportion of professional public affairs service providers in the EU marketplace.”
