How is GLOBE present in Europe?
GLOBE is active in the European region mainly via two organisations: GLOBE EU and GLOBE Europe. Together, they constitute a single forum of European legislators where MEPs and MPs can exchange ideas and information, define political strategies and agree on co-ordinated action on a regular basis.

Although formally GLOBE Europe and GLOBE EU are two separate and financially independent entities, they have shared a common support structure since April 2008, which facilitates cooperation in order to enhance the effectiveness of the two GLOBE organisations and interlocked agendas. The GLOBE Joint Secretariat in Europe functions as the binding, co-ordinating body of the GLOBE community of legislators in the European region, and remains politically neutral at all times in this facilitating role.
Some Members of GLOBE EU and GLOBE Europe are also Members of yet another GLOBE formation, GLOBE International, focused on interparliamentary dialogue within the G 8+5 group, and whose separate Secretariat is based in London.
