A Brussels-based centre turning India–Europe dialogue into partnerships, research, and action.
The Centre for Indo-European Cooperation (CIEC) is a Brussels-based centre established in 2025 to foster strong, inclusive partnerships between India and Europe across policy, technology, trade, culture, and sustainable development. From Rue Belliard 40 in the EU quarter, we convene dialogue, research, and cross-sector collaboration on artificial intelligence, the future of work, education, and justice and the rule of law.
Through partnerships with organisations such as the Center of Policy Research and Governance (CPRG) and AI4India, CIEC is a regular partner in high-level dialogues and summit tracks on AI governance and Indo-European cooperation.
Our programme concentrates on the questions where India–Europe cooperation matters most.
Institutional and regulatory questions on AI deployment, with emphasis on access for the Global South.
Implications of AI for employability, labour markets, and skills in India and Europe.
AI in pedagogy, teacher capacity, and future-ready schools and universities.
Comparative analysis of AI in judicial systems and adjudicatory integrity.
Trustworthy AI, accountability, and democratic resilience.
The team and advisers building CIEC across research, partnerships, trade, culture, and communications.
