The network sees itself as an advisory body and as such also as a contact point for international research and international cooperation. An active international component of the network is its commitment to the promotion of young researchers within the framework of the College for Interdisciplinary Educational Research (CIDER). The network cooperates, among others, with the Service Agency International Co-operation in Education (ICE) and promotes scientific exchange through joint projects or (international) conferences, thus expanding its networking activities beyond the German-speaking area.
CIDER | College for Interdisciplinary Educational Research
CIDER is an interdisciplinary network of postdoctoral educational researchers. It was founded in 2013 in the firm belief that the field of empirical educational research can benefit greatly from interdisciplinary exchange and collaboration. This approach has now been successfully implemented across three cohorts, so that a further 30 fellows will have the opportunity to participate in CIDER from 2024. In order to promote networking and interdisciplinary exchange among the fellows, CIDER alumni from all cohorts are always invited to actively contribute to the CIDER conferences and workshops.
