For decades, universities have progressively incorporated teaching and research structures related to affective-sexual diversity and gender identity. This trend soon spread beyond the Anglo-Saxon world to other cultural environments, such as Europe and Latin America.

The group Education and Diversity LGTBIQ+ (EDi) aims to fill a gap in terms of this type of structures at the UV, specifically in the educational field, and, on the other hand, was created with the intention of being an interdisciplinary area of research for several people who have in common the concern for the educational sector and the need to strive (from research and practice) for a fairer and freer school, in which the diversity present in societies is reflected and valued.

The members of the group belong to different areas of knowledge linked to education. From general didactics and specific didactics, they are involved in the training programme for the degrees of Preschool Education and Primary Education of the UV and other universities in Spain, in the Postgraduate Course in Reading and Literary Education in the 21st Century (UV), the Master's Degree in Teacher Training (UV), the Master's Degree in Research in Specific Didactics (UV) and the Master's Degree in Psychology of Education and Human Development in Multicultural Contexts (UV-UASD), the latter taught in Peru and the Dominican Republic. Likewise, the members of the group supervise Degree Final Projects, Master's Degree Final Projects and Doctoral Theses within the framework of the aforementioned studies.
