European Early Childhood Education Research Association (EECERA)

EECERA is an independent, self-governing, international association which promotes and disseminates multi-disciplinary research on early childhood and its applications to policy and practice. We're a non-profit organisation, wholly-owned and subscribed to by its substantial and influential world-wide membership. We generate our own revenue, we receive no external funding and thus ensure our independence, radical attitude and innovative openness. Our reach and interest are resolutely international and, whilst wanting to identify with Europe’s pluralist and diverse cultures, it is open to learn of, and to share in, the equally rich early childhood traditions and concepts of the World. Our annual conference is the largest early childhood research conference in #Europe providing an exceptional forum and network for #scholars, policymakers, researchers and practitioners. This year, due to #COVID, we're taking our conference online. If you're interested in plural narratives about the pandemic experience from children, parents, practitioners, providers and policy administrators, then join us on the 27th and 28th of October for a truly special event. https://lnkd.in/e_vgEQt
