ECER 2023, University of Glasgow

Since the first ECER in 1992, the conference has grown into one of the largest annual educational research conferences in Europe and has toured Europe – East and West, North and South. ECER is the place to meet researchers from a broad field of academic traditions, themes and cultural backgrounds. The aim of the ‘European Conference on Educational Research’ is to create an inclusive platform for initiating, reporting, discussing and promoting high quality educational research, that not only acknowledges its own context but also recognises wider, transnational contexts with their social, cultural and political similarities and differences. The conference is organised for emerging, as well as experienced, researchers and builds on and promotes free and open dialogue and critical discussion. It has a comprehensive approach to theory, methods, arguments, findings and research ethics.

ECER 2023 will take place on the beautiful Gilmorehill Campus of UoG. Theme is ‘The Value of Diversity in Education and Educational Research’. However, EERA welcomes contributions from the broad range of educational research. Click here for the Call for Proposals and Network Special Calls.

21 – 22 August 2023 – Emerging Researchers’ Conference (ERC)

The Emerging Researchers’ Conference (ERC) precedes ECER and is organised by EERA’s Emerging Researchers’ Group. Emerging researchers are uniquely supported to discuss and debate topical and thought-provoking research projects in relation to the ECER themes, trends and current practices in educational research year after year. The high-quality academic presentations during the ERC are evidence of the significant participation and contributions of emerging researchers to the European educational research community.

By participating in the ERC, emerging researchers have the opportunity to engage with world class educational research and to learn the priorities and developments from notable regional and international researchers and academics. The ERC is purposefully organised to include special activities and workshops that provide emerging researchers varied opportunities for networking, creating global connections and knowledge exchange, sharing the latest groundbreaking insights on topics of their interest. Submissions to the ERC are handed in via the standard submission procedure.

Prepare yourself to be challenged, excited and inspired.
