| Now
we want to look more closely at CEDRA (the CEDEFOP Research Arena): this
is neither a network of the FORUM type nor a project partnership, it is
called ‘arena’, perceived as an environment for sharing information and
knowledge among European VET researchers, also by drawing on the outcomes
of the European projects we looked at. This sharing is facilitated by two
major activities: participating in thematic events and producing joint
studies.
Starting
out from these two related activities, the number and composition of researchers
involved in CEDRA can be identified:
-
there
is a small development team (dark red);
-
the next
group (blue) are those who have been involved both as authors of studies
and participants in events;
-
there
are also several persons who have been authors only (light green);
-
and the
largest group are participants only (light yellow).
In this
section on CEDRA we shall consider both the regional distribution of participants
and the relationship between them, first related to events (figures 8
and 9) and second, to publications (figures 10
and 11). Finally, the involvement of CEDRA participants
in the projects analysed earlier will be presented. |
