Know your rights!
EIF campaigns to help illustrators grow their profession. We encourage illustrators to learn how to protect their rights, and be confident in pricing and negotiating with commissioners. Our campaigns are a joint effort to create more awareness on the illustration profession in Europe. Because we aim to improve professional standards within the creative industry.
Our events are a moment for members’ associations and individual illustrators to exchange information and share best practices. We organise yearly EIF Member meetings. We participate with a stand at the major bookfairs and festivals in Europe and offer portfolio sessions, talks and one-to-one advice to all participating illustrators.
Creators rights need supporting and it's important we all work together internationally to maintain and improve those rights. As Publications and Membership Manager of the Association of Illustrators I work with alongside CEO on campaigning for illustrators' rights and represent the AOI on the British Copyright Council and Creators' Rights Alliance.Derek Brazell, EIF Board
EIF is a collective effort of numerous European Illustrators associations who share the same goals and believe in constructive thinking and acting in favour of all professional authors working in all fields of illustration.Paolo Rui, EIF Board

The Association of Illustrators is proud to play a role within this forum.Rachel Hill, The AOI
