A new publication has been released on the "RESL.eu - Reducing Early School Leaving in the EU" project (2013-2018), a large-scale international project funded by the European Commission's 7th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development. The Portuguese participation in the project, which involved a consortium of nine European countries led by the Centre for Migration and Intercultural Studies of the Universiteit Antwerpen, was the responsibility of the CIIE/FPCEUP with the coordination of Helena C. Araújo.

This is issue 5 of volume 19 of the European Educational Research Journal launched in September, a special issue dedicated to the phenomenon of early school leaving. The issue was organised by Eunice Macedo, Erna Nairz-Wirth, Helena C. Araújo and Julia Szalai.
