- Promoting basic and clinical research
- Collecting, assessing and disseminating scientific information
- Functioning as a scientific reference body of other scientific, health and political organisations
- Encouraging and providing training and continuous education
- Promoting good patient care in this important area if medicine
EAACI is then an open society and people professionally interested in the fields of allergy and clinical immunology can join the society as a member by submitting an application. The application is then processed and reviewed by the organisation committee before being validated.
