The University of Bialystok shares a call for abstract submissions to

the Conference 'Crossing Borders with and in Teacher Education'

The conference invites researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in teacher education from across Europe and beyond to explore how borders – geographical, cultural, linguistic, and institutional – can be crossed, reimagined, and transformed in the field of teacher education. The event will take place on 25-28 August 2026 in Białystok, Poland. 

The international conference, organised in partnership with the Association for Teacher Education in Europe (ATEE), will foster scholarly exchange on the future of teacher education in diverse and rapidly changing societies. Distinguished keynote speakers from leading universities worldwide will share insights, and participants will have plenty of opportunities to present their own research and practice. Facilitating new connections and co-creating knowledge in a respectful, multicultural environment are at the heart of the event. 

A rich cultural program accompanying the conference will showcase the multicultural heritage of the Podlasie region – where Polish, Belarusian, Ukrainian, Lithuanian, Tatar, and Jewish traditions have coexisted for centuries.

The deadline to submit abstracts is 15 March 2026. Read more about the conference on the University of Bialystok’s website.
