The European Dredging Association (EuDA) is the official interface between the European dredging industry and the European Institutions. It was founded in 1993 as a non-profit industry association for the European dredging companies and related organisations to interface with the European Union’s Institutions and some International Organizations (such as IMO, HELCOM or ILO).

Dredging activities are not well known by the wider public, but the European dredging companies, members of EuDA, are world market leaders with approximately 80% share of the worldwide open dredging market. Although 70% of operations take place outside Europe, 90% of the returns flow back to Europe. 

The Association assists its members with all kinds of requests related to dredging issues, presently strongly focusing on Social, Environmental, Technical and Trade issues. 

The EuDA structure consists of a Board of Directors, a permanent secretariat based in Brussels coordinating all the activities of various working groups and task forces, composed by experts from member companies, targeting specific policy and technical issues.
