About us

We are the campaignplaybook.eu, the community for pro-European political campaign consultants and managers, public affairs pros, and communications specialists.

Together, we are writing the playbook to win campaigns. A playbook written by, and for, the members of the community. 

We aspire to:

  • Set the standard for ethical political campaigns in Europe
  • Promote and recognise talent in our industry
  • Share the skills, resources and networks our members need to thrive and win.
  • To promote the European Union values in each and everyone of the campaigns we fight

This is not another standard disclaimer on Diversity. We mean it. 

We aim at building a values-based community. More specifically, we believe in the European Union values enshrined in article 2 of the Treaty on the EU (see below), and we fight for them every day and in each campaign. 

And the work starts at home. We will always aim at building a diverse team, with individuals who bring different perspectives to the table, and, at the same time, are able to work together towards a common goal. 

For this reason, we will give priority to women, people of color, immigrants, refugees, LGBTQ persons, people with disabilities, ethnic and religious minorities, and people of various minority backgrounds.

Article 2, Treaty on the European Union

The Union is founded on the values of respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights, including the rights of persons belonging to minorities. These values are common to the Member States in a society in which pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance, justice, solidarity and equality between women and men prevail.
