EFPAM
The European Federation of Patients' Association for Anthroposophic Medicine (EFPAM) is a European federation of national patients’ organizations active in the field of anthroposophic medicine and health care, with 13 associations in 13 European countries. EFPAM represents the views and interests of people who want to use anthroposophic medicine in all its forms, as an alternative or complementary to allopathic medicine.
EFPAM is a strong ally in the defense of the individual right to self-determination in matters of health. It promotes an equal status of anthroposophic medicine and health care in European and national legislation and the inclusion of all forms of anthroposophic medicine in national and private health insurance schemes. The Federation promotes patients’ awareness and responsibility for the preservation and promotion of their own health and encourages research into anthroposophic medicine and therapies.
EFPAM is an active partner in several initiatives in the field of complementary and alternative medicine.
