  • Political promotion of integration principles,

  • integration between states,
  • all aspects of legal, institutional, soocial and economic integration,
  • integration of environmental and other policies,
  • research on integration policies,
  • help in academic and practical field work on integration,
  • the setting up and keeping of a library and of bibliographies,
  • of consulting services on integration.

Furthermore the objectives of ECTIS are the holding of conferences and seminars, as well as editing and promotion of publications and the co-operation with international public and non-government institutions.
