Process for granting awards

There has been a clear wish from EFPA’s Executive Council and Board of scientific affairs group for the awarding process to be revised. This revised process has been put in place following a review of both the awards portfolio and process during 2020 and 2021. The revised process aims to place robustness and transparency at the heart of all EFPA does in offering and evaluating nominations for awards, in the interests of awarding innovation and excellence while promoting equality, diversity and inclusion in psychological research, practice, and allied work.
