Abstract
ELN is a worldwide not-for-profit association of individual literacy researchers. The association fosters networking among its members, promotes literacy research worldwide, and aims to contribute to bridging the gap between literacy science and literacy education. Networking, advancement of literacy research, and better literacy education are not ends in of themselves, but means to strengthen individual researchers’ capabilities, promote human development, and spread humanistic, European values. This mission is currently epitomized by the on-going COST Action IS1401, which 25 objectives will be briefly reviewed. A case will also be made regarding the cooperation that WRAB, ELN and other associations can fulfill to spread European, humanistic values.
