The Atlantic Treaty Association (ATA)

ata

The Atlantic Treaty Association (ATA) is an organization which acts as a network facilitator in the Euro-Atlantic and beyond. The ATA draws together political leaders, academics, and diplomats in an effort to further the values set forth in the North Atlantic Treaty: Democracy, Freedom, Liberty, Peace, Security, and the Rule of law.

For fifty-four years the ATA has served as the leading transatlantic non-governmental organization promoting public support for the institutions that bring together people of the North Atlantic Alliance. It is the umbrella organization for the 42 Atlantic councils, which work in each of NATO's member states and most of the Partnership for Peace countries.

The ATA is fully dedicated to engaging the youth of the Euro-Atlantic through close cooperation with its youth division, the Youth Atlantic Treaty Association (YATA). YATA seeks to educate and promote debate amongst the successor generations in an effort to create responsible future political leaders who have an understanding of the values set forth in the North Atlantic Treaty.

The ATA aims to:

  • Promote the values set forth in the North Atlantic Treaty.
  • Educate and inform the public regarding NATO's missions and responsibilities.
  • Promote democracy.
  • Promote the solidarity of the populations of the North Atlantic area, and of those whose governments have signed NATO PfP or Mediterranean Dialogue Agreements, and/or those who are directly concerned with the affairs of Euro-Atlantic security.
  • Support the development of civil society in the Black Sea area and the Caucasus.
  • Conduct research into the role of NATO, and its expansion to the countries of Central Europe and the former Soviet Union.
  • Pursue a dialogue with countries bordering the Mediterranean and in the Middle East which work in cooperation with the Alliance.
  • Deepen cooperation between the ATA, its Member Associations, the governments of its Member Associations, NATO, the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, and the EU.
  • Foster debate and dialogue in an effort to create a solid understanding of key Alliance issues.
  • Engage civil society groups which support peace, security, and broad democratic practices.
  • Facilitate the development of strong relationships among its Members in an effort to realize common interest, and achieve common goals.
