Partnerships

EPR believes that lasting change and influence can only be achieved through genuine stakeholder cooperation between all actors in society.

EPR has a seat in the EU's High Level Group on Disability and has participatory status with the Council of Europe. EPR is an important partner in the informal gathering of NGO social service providers and has been a full member of the Social Platform since April 2008. EPR is also a member of Social Services Europe, a new European network launched in December 2011 to strengthen the profile and position of social services and to promote the role of not-for-profit social service providers throughout Europe.

Overall, EPR works together with all key stakeholders in the disability field including policy-makers, organisations representing the disability movement, social partners, funders, service providers and other NGOs.
