Founded in 1959 as “CERP Education & Research”, in 2000 it turned to “EUPRERA” (European Public Relations Education and Research Association). EUPRERA is an autonomous organisation with over 550 members from 51 countries interested in advancing academic research and knowledge in public relations and strategic communication.
Several cross-national and comparative research and education projects are organised by affiliated universities. In order to spread new methodologies and research results, EUPRERA organises a highly regarded annual congress each autumn in collaboration with a selected university or college in Europe.
