The European Human Behaviour and Evolution Association (EHBEA) is an interdisciplinary society that supports the activities of European researchers with an interest in evolutionary accounts of human cognition, behaviour and society.

EHBEA organises annual European conferences and occasional workshops, and provides research funding. EHBEA aims to support work with a broad, pluralistic and interdisciplinary perspective. EHBEA encourages rigorous science, with strong theoretical foundations and integration across disciplines.

Members of EHBEA are offered substantially reduced EHBEA conference fees and entrance fees to EHBEA workshops. For all applicants, official membership status is pending ratification at an EHBEA committee meeting. We reserve the right to refuse individuals membership subject to a majority vote by the EHBEA committee. Membership runs annually from 1 January to 31 December.

All new membership applications to EHBEA need to be seconded by an existing EHBEA member. If you don’t have a contact who is already a member, please can you approach the EHBEA secretary at ehbea.secretary@gmail.com who can assist with verifying your application
