One of the main objectives of the small luthiers is to provide students and teachers with creative autonomy, involving them in processes of contemporary artistic creation. On the one hand, the construction of the tools within a DIY philosophy will bring us closer to a craft concept that will reinforce the idea of an authentic artistic work that fights against the vision of precooked solutions as a recipe that ends up homogenizing learning and nullifying the true value artistic thought.
The line of research is to continuously use procedures to think reflectively and creatively and turn them into a way of dealing with diverse situations, a culture of thought in action. Betting on transdisciplinary research (frameworks, tools and strategies) promoting civic engagement with the aim of empowering future education professionals.
The purpose of the project is to contribute to a more plural approach to teaching-learning modalities at the University, focusing especially on those that favor reflective-creative thinking and the awareness of students in the construction of knowledge and in their learning process. From the contrast that reflective practice and collaborative teamwork allow, the project wants to be one more contribution to the design of these interventions and learning experiences, providing evidence of their effect on professional development and the development of generic skills in education. higher education through the development of transdisciplinary practices and from the perspective of the sustainable development goals.
The project aims to improve the capacities of state authorities to identify, analyze, monitor and evaluate online hate speech in order to develop and strengthen counter-narrative strategies (upstander speech) against hate speech motivated by racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, antisemitism and antigypsyism.

In this sense, it is an initiative that starts from previous experiences of similar characteristics (EspaiCinema) developed in the Faculty of Teaching of the University of Valencia.
INSTRUMENTARIUM XX1 is an innovative project whose main objective is the design, construction and validation of musical instruments for the 20th century, characterized by the hybridization between analog and digital, combining tradition, avant-garde and sustainability. The instruments, made with ecological materials, will have the possibility of amplification through an electrical-mechanical system based on low cost technology. Characteristics of these will be the ergonomics and adaptability to different ages and physical conditions, their robustness and portability. Its ability to generate new sounds and its detachment from a specific sound paradigm will facilitate the multicultural fit and the opening towards contemporary languages. The other objective is to validate the instruments created with people of all ages, through their active and inclusive participation in artistic creation processes. INSTRUMENTARIUM XX1 is conceived as an itinerant, installable, educational and cultural sound laboratory for quality creative and artistic development and that guarantees a society more committed to art and culture. Validation takes the form of plural intervention in formal, non-formal and informal educational and cultural contexts, pursuing another of the objectives, that of knowledge transfer. An investigation will be initiated that allows the improvement of benefits and actions through data obtained from the experiences of the participants.
