Abstract

With the growing importance of agencies in the EU executive space in terms of competences and resources (i.e., agencification), advocacy groups have started to direct their lobbying efforts toward EU agencies. In particular, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) that advocate for human rights are currently represented in a number of consultative bodies and platforms of EU agencies such as the Fundamental Rights Agency, the European Asylum Support Office, and Frontex. The role of these bodies and platforms is to “merely” assist EU agencies in gathering information on fundamental rights issues. However, access to EU agencies gives advocacy groups a privileged position to push their claims forward.
