ENDRIL

ENDRIL (European Network for Doctoral Research in Informal Learning)


ENDRIL (European Network for Doctoral Research in Informal Learning) was established by a group of PhD students at the ECSITE annual conference in Munich, in November 2003. The motivation for the establishment was firstly to create a platform for dialog between PhD students doing research in the field of science centre activities and secondly to promote a continuity in the doctoral research in this field.
