EARLI 2023. A year after… reminiscing on the biggest conference ever in Thessaloniki

A year passed and our memories of one of our favorite and most challenging projects, are still vivid

Our collaboration with the European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction marked its beginning in 2020 and during the hottest days of summer 2023, SYMVOLI faced one of its’ biggest challenges yet…2700 participants from 50+ countries flooding the streets of Thessaloniki for EARLI 2023. And we thrived every step of the way!

The conference’s theme placed its focus on Education as a hope in uncertain times, leading researchers and scholars from around the world to come together and decode the uprising challenges and complexity of education processes at times of constant change. Over the course of six days and spread across five central venues, the Ceremony Hall AUTh, Aristotle University Research Dissemination Center, Faculty of Education, University of Macedonia and Ioannis Vellidis Convention Center, our goal was to create an unforgettable, smooth and fruitful conference experience for everyone.

553 sessions, 2065 presentations, 50 symposia and panels, in combination with lively social events, exclusive discounted conference services, immersive cultural tours of the city and the priceless help of our 156 volunteers made, EARLI 2023 what could only described by many attendees “a top-ranking”, “memorable” and “inspiring” conference in all respects.

EARLI 2023 was awarded the “Hallmark Congress of the Year” during the first edition of Thessaloniki Ambassadors’ Awards.
