The PCE Europe team has created a new type of event for the PCE community, the PCE Europe Community Meetings. They are intended as a supplement to the Symposium that takes place every two years in the years in between the symposiums.

PCE Europe Community Meetings

To create a space to

• discuss important issues of our profession, organisations, strategies

• think about our identity and our development as an organisation (membership, ethics…) and as a community

• concentrate on special topics (ethics, research…)

Roundtables (facilitated by PCE Europe committees, delegates or individual members)

Open discussions in the plenum.

Especially for

• delegates, board members and members of organisational members of PCE Europe

• individual members of PCE Europe

• various partners of PCE Europe and of the approach

• also open for interested other people

The focus is on strengthening the community network, stimulating communication and actively contributing to the identity of the approach.

PCE Europe Symposiums

To promote and share

• research

• scientific work

• professional experience and knowledge

A mixture of keynotes and parallel presentations (lectures, workshops…)

Open to all interested in PCE. The focus is to inform and inspire the community by presenting the contemporary scientific development of our approach.

We think that questions like: What is important for our approach? What do we need to develop more of? How can we improve our European collaboration, e.g. on research projects? …are important for our community. To discuss this with each other, we need space. So, take the opportunity and register!
