The European Federation for Primatology (EFP) was founded on December 17, 1993. The seat of the Federation is Niederhausbergen (France).
The EFP brings together national primatological societies, as well as groups of primatologists in those countries of Europe where not yet be founded such societies.
The EFP people, membership belonging to societies or groups affiliated to Federation, involved in fundamental research, applied biomedical research and zoo management. This accounts for more than 1100 scientists, graduate students and zoo managers. More than 30 academic institutions are represented in the EFP through membership. The primates colonies which belong to these institutions account for about 2000 non-human primates.

Famous quotes containing the words european and/or federation:
“In verity ... we are the poor. This humanity we would claim for ourselves is the legacy, not only of the Enlightenment, but of the thousands and thousands of European peasants and poor townspeople who came here bringing their humanity and their sufferings with them. It is the absence of a stable upper class that is responsible for much of the vulgarity of the American scene. Should we blush before the visitor for this deficiency?”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“Women realize that we are living in an ungoverned world. At heart we are all pacifists. We should love to talk it over with the war-makers, but they would not understand. Words are so inadequate, and we realize that the hatred must kill itself; so we give our men gladly, unselfishly, proudly, patriotically, since the world chooses to settle its disputes in the old barbarous way.”
—General Federation Of Women’s Clubs (GFWC)
