The World Association of Psychoanalysis (WAP) is an organisation dedicated to promoting the development of psychoanalysis worldwide. Using the teachings of French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan as its guide, WAP was the brainchild of his student and son-in-law Jacques-Alain Miller, who, after recruiting other cofounders, announced its formation in Buenos Aires on 3 January 1992. An official declaration of its founding came in Paris four days later. Its statutes are modelled on Lacan's "Founding Act" and adopt the principles outlined in his "Proposition" about Lacan's concept of the Pass.
