The Education and Culture Directorate-General’s mission has three main aspects:
Building a Europe of knowledge
Developing the European cultural area
Involving citizens in European integration
DG EAC is currently divided into 5 "directorates":
Lifelong Learning, Education and Training Policies
Lifelong Learning, Education and Training Programmes and actions
Culture and Communication
Youth, Sport and Relations with the Citizen
Resources
It works closely with the European Union's Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency, which handles most operational programmes on DG EAC's behalf.
