As a member of EuDA, you will be able to drive the European dredging industry’s agenda that in turn will shape the EU’s agenda where it matters for you. For over 30 years, EuDA has worked on shaping the EU policy frameworks on the issues that matter to the dredging industry. EuDA is known to be a reliable and constructive stakeholder and a trusted partner representing the dredging industry in Brussels. As around 80% of national and regional legislations in Europe are initiated by the European Institutions, it is essential to access the key decision-makers and educate them on the specificities of the dredging sector to help them shape efficient and effective EU policies. EuDA engages with EU policy-makers and legislators on key topics for our industry, such as: competitiveness, transport, energy, climate change, sustainability, environment and social policy.
When EuDA was established, its members built EuDA as a neutral place where they can meet their peers to exchange views on common issues and work together towards common solutions. EuDA facilitates the development of dredging standards and sharing of dredging best-practices.
Joining EuDA will make you part of the conversation on your sector’s future challenges and opportunities: you will become part of an influential network of industry representatives and benefit from opportunities to connect, collaborate, share knowledge and build partnerships within the broad dredging community. The EuDA Annual Conference and General Assembly offer great opportunities to network with key contractors, clients, suppliers, policy-makers and decision-makers.
Becoming a member of the European Dredging Association means joining an successful community of key international players of the European dredging industry that can build a realistic sustainable future for dredging in Europe.
