About the Conference

This year’s conference will be held in Reykjavík, Iceland at the University of Iceland, and hosted by the School of education. On 22nd – 24th May 2024 

The Nordic conference on adult education and learning (NEAL) is a research conference that circulates between the five Nordic countries ever two years. NAEL is arranged by a loosely organized Nordic network of researchers with interests in adult education and learning. 

The conference is meant to be a meeting place for presenting research within fields related to adult education and learning. The conference is aimed at both early career and senior researchers in the Nordic countries. Researchers from other parts of the world as well as adult education practitioners and policy makers are also most welcome to participate in the conference. 

The conference is usually arranged as a two-day event every two years in the Spring (April or May). Each country thus hosts the conference every tenth year.  

Information about volcanic activity

The volcanic activity at the Reykjanes peninsula in Iceland has been concentrated in that area and the effects so far localized. Air traffic has not been affected and Iceland remains a safe destination. We are therefore continuing with our plans to host the NAEL  conference in Reykjavik in May.
