The Athens Institute for Education
and Research (ATINER) was established in 1995 as an independent academic
organization with the mission to become a forum, where academics and
researchers - from all over the world - could meet in Athens and exchange ideas
on their research and discuss the future developments of their discipline.
Since 1995, ATINER has organized more than 100 international conferences and
has published over 80 books. Academically, the Institute consists
of four research divisions and nineteen research units. Each research unit organizes at
least an annual conference and undertakes various small and large research
projects.
