Research team

The SEPA-interea Group’s fundamental value is to contribute to the development of research in Social Pedagogy and Environmental Education committed to civic values and human rights, through academic and research work that responds to the challenges of contemporary society from an ethical, pedagogical and social perspective.

To this end, the SEPA-interea Group has a large research team made up of 28 members (including teaching and research staff, research staff in training and those contracted for research activities) and 45 external collaborators. This team, coordinated by Professor Pablo Ángel Meira Cartea, has a proven track record of extensive and diversified knowledge transfer, reflected in articles, book chapters, books, manuals, reports, and other outputs. Over the last ten years, more than 200 articles have been published in national and international journals, many of them in indexed publications with a relative quality index (ISI-JCR, SCOPUS, etc.). In addition to this output, the group has supervised and tutored numerous doctoral, master’s and bachelor’s theses.

Furthermore, the group maintains a high level of external funding, achieved through participation in competitive calls for proposals. Thus, in the last decade, it has achieved recognition for more than twenty projects at European, national and regional level, as well as various contracts with both public and private companies and entities.

It has also promoted, organised and participated in numerous international and national conferences and seminars, linked to networks, entities and groups with which it maintains ongoing collaboration in different countries and locations around the world. Added to this is its active participation in scientific societies and initiatives committed to a critical and transformative vision of education.
