Research in the field of organizational education explores organizational behavior, especially organizational learning and change, from an educational perspective. By identifying key research topics in organizational education and by developing these within the academic community, the field can be increasingly systematized and institutionalized.
    The memorandum1 is intended to promote understanding of the program and topics of organizational education research among the academic community. Its purpose is to support the integration of organizational education in research policies and in higher education policies. This includes the creation and expansion of academic posts and programs in the field of organizational education at universities. The memorandum is also designed to encourage greater funding of organizational education research at the national and European level.
