What is SCENE?
The "Southeast and Central European
Network - SCENE" is a co-operation between Europe Houses
and similar institutions, mainly FIME members in central
and south-east Europe. It goes back to a conference held
in Vienna in June 2001 where participating institutions
expressed their intention of closer co-operation.
SCENE aims at deepening and expanding the co-operation of
its members in order to make their measures and programmes
accessible to a larger circle of citizens and in order to
make their material and non-material resources available
for mutual use and make possible common access to new resources.
SCENE is based at the European Academy Vienna and may develop
its means and possibilities further into a common platform,
that are to be expanded within the framework of FIME but
also together with other centers into a working network
of European information and education.

What is the EUROPEAN ACADEMY VIENNA?
The European Academy Vienna provides information on the
European integration process and European education. It
is a non-profit, non-partisan organisation partly funded
by the city of Vienna.
Founded as early as 1962 the European Academy is the oldest
European organisation in Vienna. Therefore, it can draw
from many years of experience in the European information
and education work about European issues as well as from
its connections in a network of about 130 partner institutions
in 26 European countries.
European Academy Vienna strives at promoting European political
knowledge amongst the citizens of Europe in order to give
them the capability of critically examining the questions
regarding European integration.
Seminars, conferences and information events are offered
on a variety of European topics, both in Vienna and also
by the partners in Europe.
European Academy Vienna has accompanied the creation of
a new Europe over the last 40 years providing information
and education for Europeans from all walks of life, from
all European countries and of all age who are interested
in the fundamental principles of European unity, up-to-date
European politics and the future of Europe.
Situated in Vienna with an European background, the European
Academy Vienna is a place of education and encounter in
Europe.
