The PBS-Europe Network is dedicated to advancing the field of Positive Behavior Support (PBS) through rigorous research and collaborative innovation. PBS is an evidence-based approach that focuses on understanding and addressing the underlying causes of challenging behaviors for individuals across various settings.

Our aim is to explore and develop effective PBS strategies that are grounded in empirical research, ensuring that our methods are both practical and impactful.

The members of the PBS-Europe Network delve into the complexities of behavior, identifying factors that contribute to challenging behaviors and developing interventions for various situations and on different tiers

We investigate how PBS can be effectively implemented in diverse cultural and educational contexts (e.g., in early childhood education, schools, homes, and juvenile justice settings), to ensure widespread adoption and sustainability. 

Our studies assess the effects of PBS on individuals and communities, highlighting its potential to improve quality of life, social inclusion, and equitable education.

We foster a collaborative environment where researchers and practitioners work together to design, conduct, and disseminate research. Our goal is to make PBS accessible and effective for everyone, promoting a culture of support and understanding. Through publications, workshops, and conferences, we share our findings with the global community, contributing to the ongoing development of PBS.
