北美洲台灣人教授協會 (簡稱NATPA) 於1980年正式成立,創立目標是關懷台灣的民主與福祉、為台灣發聲,是海外台灣人最早成立的組織之一。1979年12月10日,高雄發生「美麗島事件」後,警備總部以「涉嫌叛亂」逮捕多名關係人員。任職於北美60多處大學和著名硏究機構的137名台灣人教授與學者,聯名在華盛頓郵報發表聲明,強烈抗議中國國民黨政府藉口美麗島事件大舉逮補黨外民主、人權運動、民代和教會人士。此事加速大家團結北美台灣人教授學者的渴望,NATPA因此於1980年4月24日 正式成立。
The North American Taiwanese Professors’ Association (NATPA) was established in 1980 with the goal of caring for Taiwan’s democracy and welfare and speaking out for Taiwan; it was among the earliest organizations that were established by overseas Taiwanese people.
