NEWS: WERA Focal Meeting – Call for Submissions

The World Education Research Association (WERA) Focal Meeting in Santiago de Compostela, Spain from 1 to 3 July 2020 is co-hosted with the Sociedad Española de Pedagogía/Spanish Pedagogical Society (SEP). SEP has decided to extend the deadline for the Call for Submissions to 18 February 2020. WERA endorses this extension for submissions. Click here for the Call for Submissions.

Submissions for the Call must be completed by 18 February 2020; 23:59 Central European Time.

WERA is an association of major national, regional, and specialty education research associations dedicated to sharing scholarship, developing networks, and mutually supporting capacity building. The WERA 2020 Focal Meeting is an integral part of the annual conference of the Sociedad Española de Pedagogía (SEP) and consists of a program of paper, symposia, and poster sessions on topics of worldwide emphases and significance. WERA Focal Meetings are embedded in the conference of a WERA member association.

The Call for Submissions is posted on the WERA 2020 Focal Meeting website (www.wera-compostela.com). We hope that you will join us at the WERA Focal Meeting, and invite you to submit an abstract for a paper, poster, or a symposium for the meeting. We also seek your help in disseminating this Call widely to other networks of scholars in your country, region, or area of research. You may want to include the WERA 2020 Focal Meeting website (www.wera-compostela.com) since the online submission system and Call are available there.

Please note that the Call includes an invitation to submit proposals for papers, posters, and symposia. The online submission system can be found at www.conftool.com/wera2020.
