Show comments About us
The Meijers Committee is a unique group of law professors, academic researchers, judges and attorneys based in the Netherlands who work on a voluntary basis and are committed to a transparent and democratic European Union, which respects human rights and the rule of law. Since 1991, the Committee provides independent legal analyses of European decision-making and legislative processes in various fields of EU law and makes concrete recommendations to address the identified issues.
The current situation in Europe calls for an active Meijers Committee. Therefore, the Committee wants to focus on protecting the rule of law and fundamental human rights within the EU through engaging even more in current legal issue.
However, this means that more support is needed for the Meijers Committee – and therefore more financial resources. If you want to support our work, you can read here what the possibilities for donations are.
