The world education research association (wera) was established to build capacity and interest in education research, foster sound education research policies and practices, and promote the use and application of education research worldwide. To accomplish these goals, wera partners with national, regional, and international specialty research associations that are committed to advancing education research as a scientific and scholarly field. Wera undertakes programs and initiatives that are global in nature and transcend what any one organization can accomplish in a single country, region, or area of specialization. Currently twenty-two research associations from around the world are members of wera. The members of these associations are faculty, researchers, scholars, students and other professionals that conduct education research.
