European Educational Research Association (EERA) was founded in June 1994 as a learned society specifically for the purposes of:
- encouraging collaboration amongst educational researchers in Europe
- promoting communication between educational researchers and international governmental organisations such as the EU, Council of Europe, OECD and UNESCO
- improving communication amongst educational research associations and institutes within Europe
- disseminating the findings of educational research and highlighting their contribution to policy and practice
EERA membership is made up of more than 30 national and regional Educational Research Associations from all parts of Europe. It is governed by the Council and the Executive Committee. The academic work is organised in thematic networks. Since 2008 EERA has been based in Berlin, Germany and is constituted as a „Verein“ (i.e. non-profit organisation under German Law).
