Our aim is to raise public awareness in the field of international relations and security issues. Working members of the EAC, young students, contributes to the reaching of skills in social communication and non-formal education. We promote a sense of active European citizenship, solidarity and tolerance among young Europeans. Our mission is to encourage the other young people to think about European issues, to be involved in the formation of European citizenship and active role in shaping debates and creating European society, by organizing lectures, seminars, conferences, competitions, forums, discussions and roundtables involving young people in discussions on the future of the European Union and NATO.

We are dedicated to particular topics that encourage active participation of young people and encourage them to play an active role in communities and helping realize important role of young people in shaping the present and the future of Europe. Euro- Atlantic Center supports active participation of young people and allows them to explore different social and cultural elements.
This organisation also tries to strengthen the process of mutual learning and strengthens the sense of European citizenship and tolerance through good communication with our partners and we also keep in touch with them.
Members of EAC are interested in travelling and meeting peers from different countries who have different social and cultural background and we are keen of learning about foreign traditions. It´s the main reason why we support active participation and we try to make young leaders more European citizens and more tolerant to people from different cultures.
