The Jean Monnet Conference took place in Brussels in the European Commission's Charlemagne building on 7-8 September 2009.

The Conference was entitled "20 Years of Support for European Integration Studies: From the Jean Monnet Action to the Jean Monnet Programme".

The Jean Monnet Action was launched as an autonomous Commission initiative on the basis of a Commission Communication adopted on 28 June 1989. It has since grown into a Community programme included in the Lifelong Learning Programme adopted on 15 November 2006. Constituting a global network of excellence in the study of the European integration process, Jean Monnet professors are now active in 62 countries on the five continents, reaching a quarter million students every year.

This year's Jean Monnet conference will bring together 450 leading policy-makers, renowned academics and civil society representatives from all over the world to foster the global debate on the European Union in a variety of fields. The conclusions of the conference will be formally transmitted to the EU institutions and will result in a book published by the European Commission.
