Following Amsterdam, Barcelona and Hamburg, the ECC 2012 is the first ECREA conference hosted in the South-East of Europe and will strive for continuation of work done in Hamburg. It will follow up on and fortify the work done at ECC 2010 in the area of 'Creating Links to the Central and Eastern European Research Communities' and contribute to the inclusion of researchers from Central and Eastern European countries as a place that facilitates the participation from these countries. In addition 'Encouraging European Research Networks and Projects' will be followed up from previous conferences and benefit from the expertise of ECREA members in this area.
