The 12th biannual conference of the European Society on Family Relations (ESFR), hosted by the University of Madeira in Funchal, Portugal, in 2025, is a unique opportunity for family scholars from diverse disciplines to come together. This event invites researchers from sociology, psychology, anthropology, policymakers, and other fields to exchange their research and findings about contemporary challenges for families in Europe.
ESFR is an interdisciplinary scientific association for European research on families and family relations. Its purpose is to serve as a network, to support and link family research, and to exchange its results. First, it was established as a federation of European family researchers and family research institutes. However, ESFR also welcomes researchers and institutes outside of Europe as affiliates.

The XII ESFR congress will explore “Families across Space and Time,” inspiring interdisciplinary discussion on the multifaceted avenues through which research-based insights can contribute to understanding how families have been shaped by – and continue to adapt – to different space and time contexts. The congress will provide an unparalleled opportunity for participants to engage with cutting-edge theoretical and empirical studies that examine families as dynamic and adaptative entities that respond to shifts in geography, culture, and time.
