About EGIC
The Euro-Gulf Information Centre blends research and analyses with outreach and engagement. We are proud of being an action centre that contributes to enhancing strategic, cultural, economic and political ties in the Euro-Gulf space. Through specialised platforms, programmes and activities, EGIC works hard to develop human-to-human and institution-to-institution contact points in order to strengthen relations and constructive engagement.
EGIC also provides information services to organisations and individuals that seek to deepen their understanding of the trends unfolding in both Europe and the Gulf. EGIC is a firm believer in breaking paywalls and provides OPEN ACCESS information — infographics, articles, reports (etc) — to the interested public. Finally, EGIC organises a wide assortment of EVENTS ranging from conference and seminars to workshops, art exhibitions, travels and specialised training.
EGIC is Headquartered in Rome, Italy.
Gulf Cooperation Council Updates
Over the past years, the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) have worked to enhance their DIPLOMATIC TIES to the rest of the world and have, within that context, undertaken a number of INITIATIVES that have the propensity to benefit all. The Euro-Gulf Monitor records such dynamics and presents, weekly, those that most acutely affect RELATIONS between EUROPE and the GCC.
Country Profiles of the GCC Members
The GCC countries are unique in both their internal dynamics and their international engagements. The GCC profiles highlight important indicators such as demographics, religion, military size and spending (etc) to illustrate their main attributes and to capture how they are developing.
