The network has a Coordination Group in order to:

  • prepare and consult the agenda of ETJC meetings and ensuring broad participation of active groups in co-operation with the host group;
  • ensure that the whole network is informed about the outcome of all meetings;
  • moderate membership and messages of the coalition’s email list;
  • ensure the maintenance of the ETJC website;
  • facilitate the smooth running of the network in between meetings;
  • liaise with other regional and global civil society trade networks and other European civil society networks on related issues, in terms of information-sharing, including specific continental events.
  • coordinate the financing for the network’s activities.

The current Coordination Group members are:  Fabian Flues (Powershift), Theresa Kofler (Anders Handeln), Nelly Grotefendt (Forum Umwelt und Entwicklung), Lucía Bárcena (TNI) and Julie Zalcman (Friends of the Earth Europe). Jean Blaylock is the interim ETJC Coordinator.

Campaign planning and ad hoc working groups on specific topics and activities are regularly formed within the coalition. We aim to work in an open and transparent way, and the coalition will be informed of these groups via the central email list, with all interested groups invited to participate.
