In November 1998 several friends of the academy launched the association Friends of the EAF.
In the meantime the charitable association counts 130 members who support the projects and goals of the EAF materially and ideally. The Friends of the EAF provides news from the EAF, special conditions for all workshops, trainings and conferences of the EAF as well as specific networking offers for its members. The membership is open to all women and men, who support the goals of the EAF.
Above all the monthly club events, which are organised by the Förderverein together with the EAF, invite to networking. Currently there are club events in the different Permanent Representations of German Federal States in Berlin. On the programme stand talks and discussions and there is always enough possibility for informal exchange.
