3 Introduction Dear Colleague, On behalf of The Centre for Talented Youth, Ireland, I would like to extend Céad Míle Fáilte (a hundred thousand welcomes) to the 16th Conference of the European Council for High Ability, to be held in Dublin in As the current secretary of ECHA, I am delighted to have the opportunity to welcome you to Ireland s fair shores in August The theme of the conference will be Working with Gifted Students in the 21st Century and we hope this topic will invite a diverse cross section of research, as well as provide an excellent networking opportunity for those working in the field of gifted education, whether you are an educator, researcher, psychologist, teacher, parent or student. Although a small country, Ireland s traditions of looking outward and of transcontinental migration have helped create a world where the Irish diaspora are found everywhere. We expect that for many this will be a first visit to Ireland, while for others it will be an opportunity to return home. There will also be a significant number who, though of Irish ancestry, have never visited our shores. To all delegates and partners, whether this is a first visit, a homecoming, or in a sense both of these, we can offer a venue to exceed your expectations. ECHA 2018 will be held in the incredible Croke Park Stadium, the hub of Irish sport for over a century. Guests will be able to take their coffee break looking out over the famous pitch and accompanying Dublin city skyline, as well as take advantage of the venue s incredible visitor attractions. Croke Park also has the benefit of being centrally located and easily accessible from both Dublin city centre and the airport. A visit to Dublin offers a chance to see other parts of the country too. Ireland is simply one of the world s best travel destinations, offering a landscape of stunning beauty, with a deep cultural and literary history, and a warm and welcoming people have combined to earn us this reputation. We can also guarantee a social programmelike no other! Centre for Talented Youth, Ireland has a rich tradition in the field of gifted education and our affiliation with ECHA dates back over 25 years. CTY Ireland will work hard to ensure that we continue the wonderful tradition of ECHA conferences and we hope to see you here in August Sincerely, Dr. Colm O Reilly Director CTY Ireland Dublin City University 1

4 About ECHA Throughout Europe there is a growing awareness of the needs of our most able individuals; in recent years increasing interest in this area of child development has generated new forms of practice in education, numerous research programmes and studies, a growth in the number of societies for parents of highly able children and, indeed, a growth in concern for highly able people of all ages. ECHA has been generated by an overwhelming demand for coordination from most European countries, both West and East. The major goal of ECHA is to act as a communications network to promote the exchange of information among people interested in high ability educators, researchers, psychologists, parents and the highly able themselves. As the ECHA network grows, provision for highly able people improves and these improvements are beneficial to all members of society. The basis for this specifically European Council comes from a belief in our common cultural heritage which is distinct from that of other parts of the world. Although Europe is made up of different countries with many languages, we share the traditions and outlooks of societies in which education has been widely available for centuries. We also share the same kinds of problems, and it makes sense to work towards their solution together. The European Council for High Ability aims to advance the study and development of potential excellence in people. This enterprise calls for easy access to communication so that new discoveries whether scientific or the fruits of experience, can be readily shared between members of ECHA and others who are concerned about high ability. ECHA enjoys consultative status as a non-governmental organisation (NGO) with the Council of Europe. 2
