About the Centre

The New Europe Centre Aberdeen is concerned with European social research. It consists of a variety of people and projects at the University of Aberdeen and outside who are working on the problem of understanding Europe in terms of people, values and behaviour. An important aspect of this work is also to look at policy measures and implications.

The New Europe Centre, Aberdeen is part of a network of institutions across Europe that work together on different topics and includes partners from Vilnius to Vladivostock, from Lisbon to Lviv and from Bergen to Bucharest. A list of partners can be found here (reference to drop down menu)

The New Europe Centre is funded through a range of projects on topics such as household strategies, work-life balance, social capital, European social policy, gender, European identity, migration, youth and generations.

It uses a variety of materials including policy documents, surveys carried out by the Centre as well as secondary data analysis and in-depth interviews.
