The Centres of Excellence bring together European and national experts in a particular subject. In the Centre of Excellence on Statistical Disclosure Control (CoE on SDC), the experts from national statistical institutes and from Eurostat develop methods and tools for Statistical Disclosure Control. The activities of the Centres are co-funded by the European Commission.
In the past there were several projects in the domain of statistical disclosure control carried out under the umbrella of the CoE:

Framework Partnership Agreement on SDC with the following sub-projects:
Public use files for European microdata
