International Parliament Engagement Network (IPEN)

Description

The International Parliament Engagement Network (IPEN) brings together academics, parliamentary officials and third sector representatives from across the world, to promote collaboration and encourage knowledge sharing around parliaments and public engagement.

IPEN was founded in 2020 as a collaboration between the Centre for Democratic Politics at the University of Leeds and the UK House of Commons Service, both of which are the core partners at the heart of IPEN.

In May 2022 IPEN started to co-host the Public Engagement Hub of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), with its Centre for Innovation in Parliament (CIP). The IPU is therefore another key partner of IPEN.
