The EERA council invites member associations and partners to organise special sessions during ECER. In 2011 the recently launched EERA network on "Research on Sports Pedagogy" hosts its first symposium, the EERQI consortium will offer a review of the results gained in the three years of project duration; and SERS, the member association from Slovakia organises a symposium on “Civic knowledge, Attitudes, and Engagement among Students."
The EC commission will inform on future funding options and a group of US researchers will give insight in dilemmas of urban education in the USA.
