Interoperable Europe Community

The Interoperable Europe Community, launched under the Interoperable Europe Act, is providing a common space for public and private stakeholders, including experts, practitioners, researchers, and citizens, to co-create, exchange knowledge, and contribute to the practical implementation of interoperability across the EU driven by real-world experience and collective expertise. The Community also supports the Interoperable Europe Board by providing input to guide its strategic decisions on cross-border digital public services.

The Interoperable Europe Community is a Community of communities, bringing together public administrations, experts, practitioners and civil society into one connected network.

- Claudia Oliveira, Programme Manager in the Interoperability and Digital Government Unit, DG DIGIT
