EU Agencies Network

A single market, a single currency, borderless travel, internal mobility - just some of the very tangible benefits of the EU that many
of us cannot imagine life without today.

The network of specialist EU agencies set up by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union to carry out
specific legal, technical or scientific tasks is an important component of the EU. They work alongside the main EU institutions and
Member States, feeding them evidence-based advice to help shape informed policies and laws at the EU and national level. They
add value by promoting the sharing of information and expertise in areas that impact the lives of Europe’s 500 million citizens.
And all this for only 0.6% of the EU’s total annual budget - only €1.6 for every man, woman and child in the EU.
