For decades, universities have progressively incorporated teaching and research structures related to affective-sexual diversity and gender identity. This trend soon spread beyond the English-speaking world to other cultural environments such as Europe and Latin America. The group Education and LGTBIQ+ Diversity (EDi) aims to fill a gap in terms of structures of this type at the UV, specifically in the educational field, and, on the other hand, is created with the intention of being an interdisciplinary research area for several people who have in common the concern for the educational world and the urgency of working (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 participate in the training task in the degrees of Early Childhood Education and Primary Education of the UV and other universities in the state, 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...For decades, universities have progressively incorporated teaching and research structures related to affective-sexual diversity and gender identity.

- Diversity studies and their connection to the educational world.LGTBQI+ studies and their link to the educational world, Queer and Crip theories and their educational implications, the changes of recent years and the latest research on these issues in the international academic spehere.
