The European Federation of Marine Science and Technology Societies (EFMS) founded in December 1998 in Paris, consists of non-governmental established scientific European Associations specializing in research and education relating to the marine environment
By integrating experiences from different countries, connecting their associations and contacting the affiliated members, the EFMS will represent important added value for the European community. EFMS will act to stimulate politicians and public opinion to appreciate that oceans are still largely unexplored and that enormous benefits can be gained through investing in improving our knowledge and understanding of the oceans.
At present, more than 5000 European scientists belonging to 14 societies are involved.
