These efforts have led to the establishment of a Eurographics Working Group in Education (EWGE). The EWGE and the Education Committee are in the process of establishing joint curriculum and resource projects. One of these is to get more Eurographics participation in our SPACE exhibit and to display SPACE at both the SIGGRAPH and Eurographics conferences.

The latest joint project is CGEMS - Computer Graphics Educational Materials Source, a peer-reviewed resource meant to spread educational excellence in CG-related field.
