EACD Regional Debates bring together public relations and communications professionals from different European regions for informative discussions and great networking opportuni-
ties. By organising debates and presentations on contemporary communications issues to members across Europe, the EACD shares the accumulated knowledge of its members
across the continent, strengthening its network in the process. Hosted by EACD members, these events take a variety of forms and normally feature best case presentations, work-
shops, panel and round table discussions. At the end of each event there is always time set aside for attendees to relax wih refreshments and network with peers.
