Ethnic-Racial Socialisation in Racially / Ethnically Minoritised Families in Europe

While research on ethnic-racial socialisation is well-established in the United States, it is still in its infancy in Europe. This workshop brings together researchers from Europe working in this field to discuss the state of research and methodological aspects.

This workshop addresses ethnic-racial socialisation (ERS) in racially and ethnically minoritised families in European countries. ERS refers to processes and practices through which parents but also other socialisation agents such as schools, peers, and the media convey messages about race and ethnicity to children and adolescents. While research on ERS is well-established in the United States, research is still in its infancy in Europe.

The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers from Europe working on ERS. The programme features a keynote lecture by Prof. Linda Juang (University of Potsdam) and includes presentations from participants. There will also be space for roundtable discussions on how to conduct research (e.g., terminology and methodology) on ERS in Europe.

Call for Participation

Researchers who would like to give a presentation as part of the workshop are invited to send a proposal to the organisers (title; abstract of 300 words max.) until 5 January 2026.
