Europlat is a European Academic Network network to support the learning and teaching of psychology.

Europlat was established in October 2009, thanks to a 3-year grant awarded by the EC Lifelong Learning Programme to:

• Enhance the quality of teaching and students learning in psychology
• Develop the scholarship of teaching and learning in psychology

Europlat was formed on an evidence based belief that support for teaching and learning should be discipline-based. It involves 32 partners from 31 countries and it is also expanding through associate members.

Every year members of the network complete a research project and engage in annual Europlat meetings which enable all partners to meet and discuss the progress of the project.
