Through research and educational innovation, the group's members carry out interdisciplinary work to transform and improve the education-learning processes of students throughout their lives. This research puts the emphasis on the need to rethink teacher training and proposes alternative models based on cutting-edge international-level theories. GRECA analyses educational needs; designs, implements and evaluates educational programmes, didactic materials and educational initiatives; advises educational organisations and centres; and creates participatory spaces for educational change.
Sustainability and social responsibility are notable features that have accompanied the research group since its foundation and which set it apart from other specific didactics groups. Scientific activity and production provide support for social change and promote the natural environment’s conservation, social justice, equal opportunities, cultural diversity and circular economy.
