RESEARCH LINE

• Line 2: Social Inequalities and Educational Policies

RESEARCH GROUP

• Study and Research Group on Higher Education and Educational Research – ESPE
  Coordination: Aline de Carvalho Moura

The Study and Research Group on Higher Education and Educational Research – ESPE focuses on education research and examines the relationships between knowledge production in education and higher education within the neoliberal context. The group’s recurring research topics revolve around two main axes: theoretical-methodological concerns in education and political-institutional issues influencing and directing educational policies in Brazil.
