| |
The World Education Research Association (WERA) has announced the launch of four new International Research Networks (IRNs). Created in 2010, WERA’s IRN initiative brings together global teams of researchers through virtual communication and other channels to collaborate in specific areas of international importance. The four new networks join the current IRNs contributing to the vision of WERA. The purpose of IRNs is to synthesize knowledge, examine the state of research, and stimulate collaborations or otherwise identify promising directions in research areas of worldwide significance. IRNs are expected to produce substantive reports that integrate the state of the knowledge worldwide and set forth promising research directions.
The four new IRNs will prove to be valuable additions to WERA’s growing body of international research networks. WERA is excited to see these newly formed IRNs enrich the field of education research and lead to worthwhile collaborations among scholars with shared research interests all over the world. International collaboration in education research brings much added value to the field. WERA looks forward to these networks connecting scholars on issues of international significance, while also serving as an important model for international research collaboration.
