Recommendations to Rotating Presidencies

TEPSA formulates recommendations to the Council Presidencies before they take office. TEPSA recommendations are formally presented to representatives and high-level officials of the incoming Presidency at the TEPSA Pre-Presidency Conferences. TEPSA recommendations are formulated by experts from the TEPSA network, without necessarily representing the views of TEPSA or its Member Institutes.

A new set of TEPSA Recommendations will be presented to the incoming Lithuanian Presidency of the Council of the European Union at the Lithuanian Pre-Presidency Conference in Vilnius, on 19 and 20 November 2026. These recommendations form part of a long history of interaction between TEPSA and the Council Presidencies, starting with the first Pre-Presidency Conference in 1974.
