Dear EFPSA Community,

The Board  is excited to announce the Call for members of the EFPSA Working Community* to join two of the Working Groups of the European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations (EFPA) – Board of Cultural and Ethical Diversity and Project Group of E-Health.

As an Associate Member of EFPA, EFPSA is privileged to be able to submit nominations on behalf of individuals to join one of many EFPA Working Groups (Boards & Standing Committees) that are dealing with different topics which are in the peak of interest of many psychologists and students, as well. The mandate for this position will last for 2.5 years (half of a year of the current mandate and 2 years of the next mandate; so April 2021- october 2023) and it is a unique opportunity to gain professional experience, network among professionals, and contribute to EFPSA and EFPA at the same time.

What is EFPA?
The European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations (EFPA) is the leading Federation of National Psychology Associations. It provides a forum for European cooperation in a wide range of fields of academic training, psychology practice and research.
EFPSA has been an Associate Member of EFPA since June 2001. Through this cooperation, European psychology students can be a part of EFPA Boards, Standing committees, Task Forces, and Working Groups. Representatives of EFPSA (typically the President) visit the most important meetings of the EFPA, including General Assemblies and the Presidents’ Council meeting, bringing EFPSA the possibility to provide their input to developing different fields of psychology in Europe and the work of EFPA.  –> http://www.efpa.eu/about
