The FFME’s primary mission is to coordinate the various Houses of Europe, their access to public bodies, both European (Commission, European Parliament, Council …) and French (State, Regions, Counties, Cities, etc.. ) to get them the administrative and financial resources which the Houses of Europe need.

In connection with the member Houses, the FFME seeks to promote effective methods to inform and explain to the public the main European issues. And this, for the sake of objectivity and respect of pluralism of opinions.
