This organisation may not be a traditional think tank. We have included it in this list as we deem it to be a 'boundary' organisation – in other words, it might have some qualities or characterstics of a think tank.

The Wilfried Martens Centre for European Studies is the official think tank/political foundation of the European People's Party (EPP). In particular, the Centre 1) takes part in the preparation of EPP programs and policy documents, and 2) organizes seminars and training events on EU policies and European integration.
