The European Academies’ Science Advisory Council (EASAC) is a cooperative organization for the national academies of the European Union. EASAC was founded in 2001 at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

EASAC produces evidence-based reports and recommendations for EU decision-making and promotes science-policy dialogues. EASAC focuses on three areas: energy, biosciences, and environmental sciences. The Council of Finnish Academies communicates EASAC reports to Finnish decision-makers in the national parliament and the European Parliament.
