Call for papers

The call for papers has been opened

Please submit abstracts for the conference by 30.4.2025. Please leave your abstract without identification details.

We invite both scientific and practical papers, as well as abstracts from workshops in line with the ideology of broad-based entrepreneurship education. If your research topic, practical case example or workshop touches on phenomena of change in society, either from the perspective of the teacher, learner, entrepreneur, society, please submit your abstract for evaluation. The assessment will take the form of a blind assessment. Each abstract will be assessed by three experts with expertise in the research topics.

The perspective of the abstracts can be on pedagogy, methodology, practices, social phenomena, business or other similar topics.

The evaluation of the abstracts will take place by mid-June, after which those submitting abstracts will be informed of the next steps.

The deadline for the final paper to be published in the conference proceedings is 30 August 2025.

A link to the conference abstract publication will be published later on this page.
