We are a faculty with a long tradition in the training of professionals in the socio-educational field. We belong to the University of Vigo and we are located on an urban campus, located in the center of the city of Ourense.
Our mission is to contribute to the construction of a more diverse and inclusive society through the training of expert professionals in attention to diversity, as well as research that enables the improvement of people’s lives, with special attention to most vulnerable.
To achieve this, we seek excellence, attention to diversity, equal opportunities and the right to be different. We intend to create a training space with universal accessibility that transcends classrooms and generates inclusive learning contexts that promote diversity.
