The European Network of Information Centres (ENIC) were established in 1994 as a joint initiative of UNESCO and the Council of Europe.

[1] They are intended to implement the Lisbon recognition convention (LRC) and, in general, to develop policy and practice for the recognition of qualifications.

ENIC legally complies with Article X.1(b) and X.3 of the LRC.

The network is made up of several countries, where each country represents a party, and each party appoints a National information Centre as a member of the ENIC Network.

In this sense, each country or a member holds one vote.
