The European Association for the Teaching of Academic Writing (EATAW) [1] is an academic association supporting scholarly activity in academic writing. [2] The association was first established in 1999 [3] with the first conference being held in 2001. [4] The Europe-wide association has two main activities: a bi-annual conference, and the Journal of Academic Writing. [5]
The EATAW conference is held every two years in a European University. It was first held in 2001 in Groningen. The occasion of the bi-annual conference is when the EATAW board is elected for a term of two years. [6]
