The Annual Nordic Educational Conversation was established in 2020 by Prof. Herner Sæverot and President Michael Dal with support from the board of NERA – Nordic Educational Research Association. Saeverot and Dal are also currently the convenors of the Conversation. The Annual Nordic Educational Conversation has its origin in The Annual Bergen Educational Conversation which was established in 2009 by Prof. Saeverot. The Conversation is part of NERA and is specifically connected to NERA’s journal Nordic Studies in Education. The contributions to the Conversation are often under processing, rather than completed works, and thus form a good basis for conversations about the main themes that are chosen. Due to this, the Conversation is a place for dialogue, research and experimenting which has led to several publications, in particular special issues of Nordic Studies in Education. Each year leading experts in their field are invited to accentuate and make visible fundamental and common educational questions.
