commonspace.eu is an independent information and analysis website, providing original content on a range of topics affecting Europe and its neighbourhood. Alongside publishing daily articles, it is home to the Concise newsletter series and Unpacked podcasts, helping its audience to determine not only what’s occurring, but why it is relevant; and maintains a number of social media channels to encourage discussion over the issues it covers.

commonspace.eu is owned and managed by LINKS Europe Stichting, sharing its ethos for a secure and prosperous Europe in friendship and solidarity with its neighbourhood; and a democratic, citizen-oriented European Union as an international force for good.

Our Mission
commonspace.eu is based in The Hague, the Netherlands, where its core team of analysts work with partners and contributors from across Europe and beyond to help understand and explain complex geopolitical issues. Its readership includes decision makers and opinion shapers, seeking to put global news and events in a wider context.

commonspace.eu provides a platform for diverse views and opinions. All contributions must adhere to a set of guidelines contained in the site’s code of conduct, which aims to ensure respect for free speech and tolerance; excludes any material which inflames racial, religious or political hatred; and ensures respect, regardless of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation and cultural identity.

commonspace.eu is a space for many views and opinions but takes a principled position on issues where necessary.

Our History 
commonspace.eu was established in 2011, to contribute to the public debate in and about the Caucasus and the region's relations with Europe, focusing primarily on the need for peace in the region, on the value of regional cooperation, and on strengthening relations between the countries of the region and Europe.
