A Cross-Cultural Collaborative
[By Staff Reporters]
The Comparative and International Education Society (CIES) was founded in 1956 to foster cross-cultural understanding, scholarship, academic achievement and societal development through the international study of educational ideas, systems, and practices. The Society’s members include more than 2,000 academics, practitioners, and students from around the world.
Protean Interests
CIES work is built on cross-disciplinary interests and expertise as historians, sociologists, economists, psychologists, anthropologists, and educators. The Society includes 1,000 institutional members, primarily academic libraries and international organizations.
Comparative Studies and Policy
Over the last four decades, the Society’s members have strengthened the theoretical basis of comparative studies and increasingly applied those understandings to policy and implementation issues in developing countries and cross-cultural settings. The membership has increased global understanding and public awareness of education issues, and has informed both domestic and international education policy debate. The Society works in collaboration with other international and comparative education organizations to advance the field and its objectives.
Assessment
As a registered non-profit [501(c)3] organization in the United States, the Comparative and International Education Society supports the activities of its members to:
- promote understanding of the many roles that education plays in the shaping and perpetuation of cultures, the development of nations, and in influencing the lives of individuals
- improve opportunities for the citizens of the world by fostering an understanding of how education policies and programs enhance social and economic development
- increase cross-cultural and cross-national understanding through educational processes and by the study and critique of educational theories, policies and practices that affect individual and social well being
