Linking...
Since 2018, Interphaz has hosted the Centre EUROPE DIRECT Lille Métropole.
The European Commission has declared that our role is to establishing a link between the European Union and citizens.
Why?
- To make the European Union more accessible,
- To enable citizens to participate in debates that will shape tomorrow's Europe,
- To answer your questions about European policies or financing,
- To offer fun activities in schools, etc.

We propose events and activities for all publics (citizens, schools, local authorities, associations, ESS structures) in the European Metropolis of Lille. This includes the dissemination of official EU publications.
However, it should be noted that legal advice and interpretation of EU law are not part of our tasks.
Our information mission is proposed free of charge to citizens.

We organise events and organise activities around Europe in schools, social centres, local missions, local authorities or associations and ESS, etc.
