Member Associations Newsletter

Independent, self-supporting, European

EUROCLASSICA is independent and self-supporting, with members from many major European countries, from Sweden to Malta and from Portugal to Cyprus. Each member association contributes a small annual subscription fee to support our initiatives and activities.

We meet annually at a conference held at the end of August in a different European country each year. Recent conferences have taken place in Athens (GR), Leiden (NL), London (UK), and Antwerp (BE).

For further information, please contact the EUROCLASSICA representative of your national association, browse through our website, or follow us on Twitter @EUROCLASSICA.

  1. To bring together all the associations of teachers of classical languages and civilisations in Europe and to promote their cooperation.
  2. To ensure the promotion and defence of the study of classical languages and civilisations, providing a unifying link and a powerful platform for cultural cohesion among European countries, especially through representation at international organisations.
  3. To assert publicly the contemporary relevance of classical languages and civilisations, and to highlight the pressing need to teach them, fully respecting the autonomy of each country.
  4. To encourage cooperation with associations outside Europe which have similar aims.

A European network for classical education

Over two million children and young people study Classics at school in Europe today.

Each country has its own traditions for learning about the ancient world, but what can Classics teachers learn from each other? Every country has a professional association for teachers to communicate and update their skills. EUROCLASSICA provides a unique platform for these national associations to come together and see what is happening in the world of Classics teaching across Europe. Current issues affect not only our own schools but others as well, and we help each other by exchanging experiences and resources to promote Classics in our own schools.
