The tasks include providing up-to-date information about current EU political affairs, legislative procedures and political developments in Europe. We have an extensive network of contacts in the European institutions, especially the European Commission, the European Parliament  and the Permanent Representation of the Federal Republic of Germany. Our excellent contacts enable us to incorporate the interests of Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein in the decision-making process on the European level early on.

In addition, we actively promote our regions by presenting the diversity of both states through events, conferences and cultural activities in Brussels. We maintain close ties with other regional offices in Brussels, especially with other Northern German states as well as the entire Baltic Sea region. By representing common interests and through joint activities, we are strong on a European level and contribute to an ever-closer integration of our region.
