European Western Balkans (sometimes abbreviated EWB) is a web portal that focuses on the Western Balkans countries and reports on development of the European Union's enlargement policy towards the states of North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo.

The objective of European Western Balkans is to enhance understanding, raise awareness and further dialogue surrounding issues facing the democratization of Balkan nations and the desire for its integration in the European Union. The European Western Balkans website takes a more journalistic than scholarly approach with interviews and analysis from journalists, experts, analysts, writers, historians, as well as leaders and political figures from the European Union and Western Balkan states.[1]

European Western Balkans is entirely independent and it is owned and run by the Centre for Contemporary Politics think tank based in Belgrade. In 2016 the portal, along with its parent organization and Konrad Adenauer Foundation, published a guide in Serbian "Evropski parlament i Srbija" (European Parliament and Serbia) with the aim of helping Serbian MP's understand how European Parliament works. The promotion of the guide took place in National Assembly of Serbia and the speakers were David McAlister and Maja Gojković.[2][3]
