The East African Teacher Education Symposium (EATES) is an annual international symposium for educational research related to teacher education.
The symposium addresses the situation in and development of teacher education in Uganda, but also seeks to include a regional perspective on teacher education within The East African Community (The Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republics of Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, South Sudan, and the United Republic of Tanzania).
The symposium aims to present high-quality research with relevance for teacher education in Uganda and the East African region, and to be an international platform for developing new research on and collaboration in teacher education.
