Abstract
The European Anthropological Association (EAA) was created in 1976. It is a scientific organization, which aims to promote research and teaching in anthropology in the different European countries and to promote exchanges of information, workshops, scientific congresses, and schools at the post graduate level. It attempts to bring together and generate synergy among people, institutions and organizations, which have shared interests in education in Anthropology. The EAA has more than 500 regular members from about 30 European and several non-European countries. A newsletter is distributed among all members two or three times a year. The EAA has also published a Biennial Book series since 1998. A congress of the EAA is arranged every two years in a different European host city. The first Intensive Course in Biological Anthropology Summer School was held at Charles University in Prague last summer. The EAA membership fee for regular member is not fixed; rather the fee has three levels based on the economic status of individual countries.
