The Conference of European Provincials (CEP) is the meeting of European Jesuit Major Superiors. Its purpose is to promote better coordination and cooperation among the Jesuit Provinces of the countries of Europe in the various domains of their apostolic activity.
The CEP has a President, appointed by the General Superior in Rome for four years, which can be extended for two more years, and he remains in office until the appointment of his successor. The current president is Mark Rotsaert from the North Belgian Province. His assistant is Dermot O'Connor from Ireland.
Those who are entitled to membership of the Conference are all the Provincials, Vice-Provincials and Regional Superiors of Europe and the President of the Conference.
Jesuit European groups are considered as privileged means to foster interprovincial collaboration within the Society of Jesus in Europe in its different areas of activity.
For the moment there are two Jesuit European communities under the direct jurisdiction of the President or linked with the European works. Linked to these communities there are also some common works of the Provinces of Europe.
An electronic news service "Jesuits in Europe" is helping to develop a better understanding for common Jesuit concerns in Europe. It collects and distributes information of supra provincial interest and encourages communication and collaboration among groups and individuals.
