Take part in our campaign!

As part of a long-running awareness campaign, we are focusing on the theme “A New Dynamic for Autism. I ∞ autism”.

Representing an estimated 7 million people

Autism-Europe is an association gathering almost 90 member associations, individual members and/or self-advocates from 38 European countries.

A new dynamic for change and inclusion

Autism-Europe will hold its 12th International Congress in Nice (France) between the 13 and 15 September 2019. We are now accepting early bird registrations.

Sharing knowledge across Europe

Autism-Europe holds a triannual international congress to share the latest research and best practices. More than 1,700 delegates attended the last edition in 2016. The next Congress will be held in Nice in 2019.

Influencing European decision-makers

Autism-Europe plays a key role in raising public awareness, and in influencing the European decision-makers on all issues relating to the rights of people with autism.
