The 25th Annual EAIE (European Association for International Education) Conference

In 2013, the EAIE will hold its 25th Annual Conference at the very cusp of Europe: Istanbul.
Straddling Europe and Asia, Istanbul is the largest and most monumental city in Turkey, and is a melting pot of cultures which mix harmoniously on both sides of a city split geographically by the Bosphorus strait. This bustling city is home to over 13 million people, and from 10 to 13 September 2013, will also be home to the EAIE Conference.


Conference theme

The theme for 2013 is ‘Weaving the future of global partnerships’. By drawing together different cultures, nationalities, and professions within higher education, the EAIE has, since its inception, developed a platform for creating dynamic partnerships not only within higher education but also with stakeholders in the societies we serve. The fabric of international education is becoming more and more colourful as individuals and institutions around the world increasingly focus on internationalisation. The EAIE is committed to playing an active role in bringing together all these individual threads of international education to celebrate the diversity in the field, foster knowledge exchange and prepare participants for the future.
 
The 2013 Call for Proposals is open
The EAIE is now accepting proposals for sessions, workshops, posters and the all new Ignite© sessions for the 2013 EAIE Conference.
