IPA/EPF meetings and activities
Most of you will probably receive the IPA
newsletter anyway, but for those who don't, here is a brief
report about the Educational Open Forum at the Frankfurt Book Fair.
The next meeting of the EPF will take place in Tallin on December the 5th. Here's the agenda. If there is anything that interests you specifically, please contact me before. Otherwise, I will make all published papers available after the meeting.

For this meeting, the participants will prepare country reports. I have put the last EPF country reports (aggregated for 2016 and 06/2017) on the EEPG website in the members' section. There might be some new insights that go over and above the EEPG country reports we published on the same page after the last AGM.
