ICOMEU2024 is the sixth International Conference on the Management of Educational Units, the successful yearly conference series which started in 2018. The ICOMEU 2024 International e-Conference is hosted and organized by the International Hellenic University. It is designed to provide a unique opportunity for educators and researchers, academics and practitioners from universities, schools, educational organizations, cultural institutions, businesses, industries, and other private and public agencies around the world to share and discuss their innovative practices, research initiatives, and educational instruments which advance the delivery of instruction, learning and research but also the management of educational units. This year the Conference is jointly organized by the postgraduate program M.Sc. on ‘Management of Educational Units’, offered by the Department of Business Administration, Marketing and Tourism, and the Department of Educational Studies – National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. ICOMEU 2024 will be held on-line, free of charge for all the participants.

Efficient, effective and digital management of educational units is crucial to integrate innovative pedagogical approaches and practices into the learning process, to value and advance diversity, inclusion, and equity for students with special needs, migrant and refugee children, youth across the gender/sexuality spectrum, ethnic and religious minorities, members of at risk and marginalized groups. During such challenging and uncertain times, educators need not merely address and face the unpredictable future but also be prepared, along with their students to anticipate forthcoming adversities and seize opportunities. Perception and use of knowledge, teaching methods, materials, means, and scopes need to be discussed and redefined. This educational “new deal” requires broader interdisciplinary collaborations expansion of the educational ecosystem and foremost the willingness to explore the equilibrium amongst artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the human cerebration.

The official conference languages are Greek and English. There will be sessions in Greek and/or English.
