The annual congress of Nordic Educational Research Association (NERA) will be held on 15–17 March 2023 at Oslo Metropolitan University in Norway (see https://www.oslomet.no/en/about/events/nera-2023). As part of the congress, the Social Pedagogy Network will organize paper sessions around social pedagogical questions. As coordinators for the Social Pedagogy Network, we welcome you to submit an abstract and share your research or fieldwork experiences connected to social pedagogy. It is also possible to present a poster.
The Congress has an overall themeof Digitalization and Technologies in Education – Opportunities and Challenges. The presentations in the Social Pedagogy Network don’t need to deal with the theme but are expected to connect to social pedagogy as a discipline or a field of practice. They can explore questions related to e.g. socialisation, participation, marginalisation, immigration, globalisation and transnational issues, lifeworld perspectives, and vulnerable groups.
Online submission for the abstracts will be open until 15 November 2022. See the details at: https://booking.berg-hansen.no/eventportal/#/event/109273/published/f770af4c8d01fec1c9737f4adeb685896ded6d03.
The Social Pedagogy Network coordinators, by direction of NERA, will present a program based on the accepted abstracts. We hope that the program will be very interesting.
Besides the paper sessions and poster presentations, the network can organize symposia and roundtable discussions. Information about these will be available later. You are very welcome to join all these sessions.
