Our team
The operational team is hands-on and out in the field every day. Currently present at four locations — in Angers and Paris, at the heart of the European institutions in Brussels, and more recently in Valencia, Spain — the team travels frequently to organize and lead conferences throughout France. They also meet regularly across Europe to implement the various European projects under their responsibility.
“I have the privilege of leading, alongside Julian Jappert, an extremely motivated team, passionate about the issues they advocate for with conviction. They are also true professionals, sometimes at the beginning of their careers, who handle their work with great skill.” (Sylvain Landa, Executive Director)
