Dear friends and colleagues,
This autumn marked not only the 25th anniversary of the “peaceful revolution” in Leipzig and the fall of the Berlin Wall, but commemorated also changes in Europe and beyond, resulting in the lifting of the iron curtain. For some of us these alterations still appear as a miracle. For the younger ones, Europe is experienced as a continent with open borders, travelling around freely seems “natural”. We should not forget though that these achievements are results of concrete social and political activities.
Taking action accordingly, 15 colleagues from 9 European countries seized the opportunity in these times of change. The former European Family Therapy Network, created in 1986 with its earlier foundations in conference meetings, initiated a European association. Established formally in 1990, EFTA will have existed a quarter of a century next year!
This association is growing year after year, playing a visible part on the global arena. Having now members from 29 European nations as well as from Israel is an accomplishment we wish to celebrate, with the founding and current members! Below you can read more information on this anniversary event.
Please find some updates from our members in this newsletter. You are also always welcome to share your news with us!
My warm wishes,
Maria Borcsa

Cooperation between EFTA and SPR (Society for Psychotherapy Research)
Dear Colleagues,
I have just been asked by the President of EFTA to be part of the Child and Family Therapy Research (CAFTR) Special Interest Group which falls under the ambit of the Society for Psychotherapy Research.
Details about the group and its aims are at:
http://www.psychotherapyresearch.org/?page=388
My specific role will be that of liaising with EFTA to help ensure that we have a good representation of family therapists involved in our activities. SPR would very much like to promote themselves as a venue for child and family therapy researchers to meet, share ideas and build a professional community together.
Any interested researchers who would like to be part of this please come forward.
My contact details are angela.abela@um.edu.mt
The annual SPR meeting will be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (USA) from June 24 to June 27, 2015. We would like to encourage CaFTR members to create a strong presence at next year's meeting; toward that end, we are encouraging colleagues to submit papers, posters, and panel ideas to present at the conference. The dates for submission will be November 3 to December 5 (Friday), 2014.

Chers Amis et Collègues,
Cet automne a été marqué non seulement par le 25ème anniversaire de la « révolution pacifique » à Leipzig et de la chute du Mur de Berlin, mais aussi par la commémoration des changements, en Europe et au-delà, qui ont entrainé la levée du « rideau de fer ». Pour certains d’entre nous, ces bouleversements apparaissent encore comme un miracle. Pour les plus jeunes, l’Europe est vécue comme un continent avec des frontières ouvertes où la liberté de circulation semble « naturelle ». Nous ne devons cependant pas oublier que ces changements sont le fruit d’activités politiques et sociales très concrètes.
Lors de cette période de bouleversements, 15 collègues de 9 pays européens en profitèrent pour prendre des mesures en conséquence. L’ancien « Réseau Européen de Thérapie Familiale » (créé formellement en 1986 et bâtit lors de réunions informelles qui avaient lieu à l’occasion de conférences importantes) est devenu une association européenne. Etablie formellement en 1990, l’EFTA fêtera, l’année prochaine, un quart de siècle d’existence!
L’association s’est développée année après année en jouant un rôle visible sur la scène internationale. L’EFTA a aujourd’hui des membres dans 29 pays d’Europe et Israël. Nous souhaitons célébrer cet aboutissement avec les membres fondateurs et les membres actuels ! Vous trouverez ci-dessous des informations sur cet événement anniversaire.
Vous trouverez également dans ce bulletin des actualités de certains de nos membres. Vous êtes toujours les bienvenus pour partager vos nouvelles avec nous !
Avec mes sentiments les meilleurs,
Maria Borcsa
