Network Objectives

The general objective is to establish a network including south, east, north and west European researchers in order to share and gain knowledge about social justice in education  in relation to social class, gender, sexuality and ethnicity, and about all types of intercultural education informed by assymetric power relations.

The network is interested in research on educational goals in educational settings from pre-school to university, thus including the curriculum, teachers, learners, communities and their relationship to education, and practices of intercultural innovation.  It always keeps a strong focus on socially contextualized research and issues of social justice and interculturality.
