The Parliament Magazine is a fortnightly EU politics magazine. BrusselsMedia.eu describes it as "the main product for the Brussels market".[1]
Contents |
The magazine is based upon contributions - both editorial and advertorial - from sitting members of parliament, NGOs, pressure and interest groups on issues currently under discussion within the European institutions. In the last parliamentary session, more than 200 members of the European Parliament and 19 of the 27 European Commissioners wrote specifically for the magazine, providing in-depth policy coverage and analysis. Managing editor is Brian Johnson, who also oversees the publication of www.theparliament.com.[1]
Special feature editions include Green Week, Employment Week, the OECD Forum as well as in depth EU Presidency supplements.

It is one of the oldest political publishing houses in the world, and has published essential publications for over 174 years. They also publish Dod's Parliamentary Companion.

Analogous to the MEP Awards, the European Public Affairs (EPA) Awards aim to highlight the work of outstanding Public Affairs professionals across Europe. Judges at the 2010 awards included a number of senior professionals from influential organisations.[9]
