Transatlantic Policy Consortium

The Transatlantic Policy Consortium (TPC) is a network of 42 North American and European higher education institutions that conduct education, training, and research in the field of public policy and public administration. Its mission is to promote an ongoing dialogue of students and faculty and to conduct joint research on contemporary transatlantic public policy issues.[1] Papers written for the consortium's colloquia are published in the Transatlantic Public Policy Series with LIT Publishers in Germany.[2] Current co-chairmen are professors Charles F. Bonser of Indiana University School of Public and Environmental Affairs and Eberhard Bohne of the German University of Administrative Sciences Speyer.[3]

History

The consortium developed out of colloquia on transatlantic public policy issues jointly sponsored by Indiana University School of Public and Environmental Affairs and École Nationale d'Administration since 1997.[4] It was formally established in May 2000,[5] and has been a grant recipient of the Bosch Foundation since 2008.[6]
