EFC International Branch

In response to requests from international EUROCORR delegates wishing to become more involved in the activities of the Federation, the creation of an EFC International Branch was approved at the last General Assembly in November 2023 and launched during the last EUROCORR congress in Paris in September 2024.

The purpose of this Branch is to make the Federation more attractive by offering people the same benefits as members of member organiations. It also helps to give more visibility at the international level to the Federation with a wider network and enriching interactions.

The first Chair of the Branch is Hiroshi KAKINUMA, Assistant Professor at the Tohoku University (Institute for Materials Research) in Sendaï, Japan. Now people from the Middle East and Asia have joined the EFC community thanks to this Branch.

Become a member

People who live and operate in countries where the EFC is not represented through its European or International Member Societies are invited to become an EFC member through this Branch. 

Benefits will include

• participation in EFC Working Parties,
• reduced registration fees for EUROCORR and EFC events, if applicable,
• access to the restricted area of the EFC website containing the electronic proceedings of past EUROCORR conferences, and
• discounted prices for EFC publications, such as the EFC Green Books.
