OUR NEXT CONFERENCE

​

ECArTE conference in Vilnius, Lithuania postponed until September 2022

Following consultation with Vilnius University and the ECArTE membership, the Board have made the decision to postpose the ECArTE conference which was due to take place in Vilnius, Lithuania this September. This is due to the continuing uncertainties caused by the pandemic and concerns of bringing together an international community of delegates.

We have decided to postpone the conference rather than move it on-line as ECArTE conferences are about place, and the bringing together of the community in person. We are grateful to the local organising committee in Vilnius for agreeing to move the conference to 14th-17th September 2022. We are planning – for the most part – to roll over the programme which has been created for this year. The conference administrator will be in contact with presenters regarding this process.
