The ECVA was established by the Jubilee Centre in 2022 to enhance collaborations on research on character education across Europe. It provides unrivalled opportunities for members to share the best practices by participating in projects, events and other mutual-learning activities involving a wide range of universities. The Association also provides members with unique opportunities to shape European policies and initiatives affecting higher education and research. It aspires to bring together many educational institutions in Europe and scholars from all over the world.
