European Educational Research Association

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not notable. The "European Educational Research Association" is a German non-profit organization, but not affiliated with any government organisation that I can see, despite their claimed mission statement.

As a corporation it fails WP:CORPDEPTH, but also fails WP:GNG since I can't find viable secondary sourcing.

Please note that being one of many companies/organisations to attend to the European Conference on Educational Research or take a role in the European Educational Research Journal is not in itself of any great relevance.

 * Keep: The first 3 results in Google German books are secondary sources that talk a lot about the European Educational Research Association (EERA). 2 of the top 10 Google English books also talk extensively about the EERA and its history and what it has done.


 * English books
 * Europeanizing Education: governing a new policy space by Martin Lawn, Sotiria Grek: the need for an educational organization, who founded EERA, where they met, reasons for forming, how the organization grew
 * Evidence and Public Good in Educational Policy, Research and Practice by Mustafa Yunus Eryaman, Barbara Schneider: EERA lobbyed the EU to increase educational research budget
 * The Routledge International Encyclopedia of Education by Gary McCulloch, David Crook: shorter handbook, but concise summarization of what the EERA does


 * German books:
 * Bei Vielfalt Chancengleichheit by Marianne Krüger-Potratz, ‎Ursula Neumann, ‎Hans H. Reich: history of EERA's founding, how it chose its main areas of research focus
 * Kleine Geschichte der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Erziehungswissenschaft by Peter Horn, Hans-Georg Herrlitz, Christa Berg: more information than you could possibly ever want about the history and founding of the EERA
 * Handbuch Bildungsforschung by Rudolf Tippelt, Bernhard Schmidt: shorter handbook, concisely summarizes the main points of the above books


 * As a note, I see that the current EERA page doesn't have citations. These previous books can cover most of them.
