International Psychoanalytical Association - Regional Organizations of The IPA

Regional Organizations of The IPA

There is a Regional Organisation for each of the IPA’s 3 regions (in Europe it is the European Psychoanalytical Federation (or EPF); in Latin America it is the Federation of Psychoanalytic Societies of Latin America (or FEPAL); and in North America it is the North American Psychoanalytic Confederation (or NAPSAC). Each of these three bodies consists of Constituent Organisations and Study Groups that are part of that IPA region. The IPA has a close working relationship with each of these independent organisations and values them highly, but they are not officially or legally part of the IPA.
