CAE Commitees are organized by subject area. Committees work within CAE and other sections to advance research and practice in their area, including proposing and and sponsoring sessions at the AAA Annual Meeting. Each committee holds a business meeting at the Annual Meeting to plan for the next year. Joining a committee is a good way to become involved with CAE, meet other scholars with similar research or teaching interests, and learn how anthropology and education intersect.
