Abstract

The main objective of this chapter is to describe the contribution of the IEA civic and citizenship education studies-Civic Education Study (CIVED) and International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS)-to educational research and policy in the European context during the last 20 years. To this end, the chapter begins by briefly introducing the major education research and policy priority areas regarding civic and citizenship education in Europe and provides a brief account of the participation of European countries in the IEA studies. Then, the contribution of IEA civic and citizenship education studies is illustrated by highlighting research themes, topics, and findings of specific prominence and relevance in Europe that were enabled by such data. Finally, there is a reflection on potential avenues for further research as well as for increasing the impact of the IEA studies in the European context.
