Presentation

The Intelligence College in Europe was launched on 5th March 2019 in Paris. It brings together 23 member countries, which signed a Letter of Intent on 26th February 2020 in Zagreb, and 7 partner countries.

The College is a collective endeavour of European intelligence communities. It generates professional and academic views on a wide range of intelligence-related topics and disseminates those in order to contribute to the development of a strategic intelligence culture in Europe, without being prescriptive.

The Intelligence College in Europe is a unique intergovernmental initiative enhancing European security.

Activities

The Intelligence College in Europe is a platform for reflection, sharing and outreach. College activities stimulate strategic dialogue between:

  • Intelligence communities in Europe allowing executives from different services to get together and compare their experiences at a non-operational level.
  • Intelligence communities and Academia, through publications and the implementation of an academic programme dedicated to intelligence professionals.
  • Intelligence communities and national and European decision-makers, but also citizens, in order to raise awareness about intelligence-related challenges and issues.
