This year's conference is on the theme of 'encompassing all voices' and will reflect on the current challenge to make education available to everyone, including those people who would otherwise be marginalized; providing equal access to high quality learning, and seeking out and incorporating divergent viewpoints into policy and practice. These are the guideposts for working in international higher education today.

The Catalan university system regularly takes part in the EAIE Annual Conference and Exhibition with its own stand.
