Association francophone pour le savoir (ACFAS)

The Association francophone pour le savoir (ACFAS) is a non-profit organization which aims to contribute to the advancement of science in Quebec and the French-Canadian community. ACFAS was founded in 1923 as the Association canadienne-française pour l'avancement des sciences (French-Canadian Association for the Advancement of Science). Its name was changed in 2001 for Association francophone pour le savoir (ACFAS). Despite the name change, Acfas retained the acronym by which it has become known.

The ACFAS includes individual members and builds institutional partnerships, all motivated by the development of research, regardless of the field.
