The EIB attaches great importance to engaging with civil society and building cooperative relations with its representatives. An active dissemination of information and a constructive dialogue with civil society organisations (CSOs) are essential to improve public knowledge of and trust in the EIB as well as the Bank's ability to respond to public expectations.
The EIB acknowledges that CSOs can have a valuable input in the development of its policies and activities and provide useful information on projects the Bank considers for financing because of their understanding of local issues. The Bank engages with CSOs to address questions and issues of common interest. The EIB actively seeks contacts with organisations that can help the public and, more specifically, citizens affected by its operations find their way to information about the Bank.
A Civil Society Unit acts as the first interface with international civil society at large.
This subsite aims to provide useful information on EIB activities and policies as well as its relations to civil society.
On October 17, 2011, the EIB organized in Luxembourg its first seminar between its Board of directors and civil society organisations.
The REsults Measurement framework (REM) will improve the ex-ante assessment of expected project results and enhance the Bank’s ability to report on actual results achieved for projects financed outside the EU.
