Many things have changes since the establishment of the EFG in 1981, mainly as a result of socioeconomic challenges in Europe. From a professional association focused on predominately professional and cooperative issues, EFG has evolved into an organization also committed to the European Union development agenda, whose mission is to contribute to a safer and more sustainable use of the natural environment, to protect and inform the public, and to promote a more responsible development of natural resources.
