The AIACE was created in 1969 by 35 former officials of various nationalities. It has always worked to improve the well-being of all pensioners and endeavoured to nurture, in a spirit of friendship and good humour, the links among themselves and with the administrative services of the institutions.
On 14 June 2002, an agreement was signed between the AIACE, represented by its then President, Gerhard van den Berge, and the Commission, represented at the time by Vice-President Neil Kinnock. On 29 February 2008, a new agreement was signed by Vice-President Kallas and our President Ludwig Schubert.
The AIACE, which consists of central organs and sections in certain countries, makes available a number of services as well as information for EVERY FORMER MEMBER OF STAFF WHO REQUESTS THEM.
