CALL FOR PAPERS

The International Symposium on Social Studies Education (USBES), which is organised in cooperation with the Association of Social Studies Educators (SBEBD), brings together all stakeholders involved in the Social Studies Education process. The symposium is hosted by a different university every year.This year, the 12th International Symposium on Social Studies Education will be hosted by Trakya University in Edirne, Türkiye. Edirne is the gateway of our country to Europe, the old capital city of the Ottoman Empire for many years and the second city in the world with the highest number of historical artefacts per square metre. The symposium aims to create various discussion platforms on different perspectives in the context of social studies education, share current research findings and create opportunities for new collaborations.
