The European Baptist Federation (EBF) is a federation of 59 Baptist associations and is one of six regional fellowships in the Baptist World Alliance. The headquarters is in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

History[edit]

The EBF was founded in Ruschlikon, Switzerland, in 1949.[1] That same year, it participated in the founding of the International Baptist Theological Study Centre in Ruschlikon, Switzerland.[2] It lays a great deal of emphasis on human rights, religious liberty and aid programs. According to a census published by the association in 2023, it claimed 59 member associations in 52 countries, 24,000 churches and 800,000 members. [3]
