Европейска федерация на академиите на науките
Европейската федерация на академиите на науките, която заедно с Европейската научна фондация (Страсбург) осъществи международната оценка на институтите на БАН, е основана през 1994 г. и е Федерация на 53 национални академии на науките и хуманитарните науки в 40 европейски страни.
(Това – за онези глупци, които се раздраха да крещят, че само в България било имало академия на науките, че наука се правела само в университетите!)
Академиите-членове на ЕФАН са самоуправляващи се общности от учени и специализанти, и функционират като научни общества, мозъчни тръстове, предоставящи грантове и организации, извършващи научни изследвания.
ЕФАН
* насърчава обмена на информация и опит между академии;
* предлага на европейската наука и общество съвети от своите академии-членки;
* стреми се към отлични постижения в областта на науката и образованието, за високи етични стандарти в провеждането на научните изследвания, както и за независимост от политическите, търговските и идеологическите интереси.
