The research groups REDOPS (Educational Research for Organizational, Professional and Social Development) and DIGITS (Digital Technologies and Inclusion in Educational Settings), which are integrated into CRiEDO’s activities, have been recognized and funded under the SGR-Cat 2025 call. These grants from the Government of Catalonia support the scientific activity of research groups of excellence to address social, educational, and equality challenges over the next three years.
The REDOPS research group is coordinated by Dr. David Rodríguez-Gómez (CRiEDO-UAB) and structures its work around three priority lines: organizational and professional development, evidence-based education, and the promotion of healthy and sustainable organizations and territories. Through high-impact initiatives such as the COIIN, REDU-CAT, and Espais C projects, REDOPS will continue to drive the improvement of public educational services, intergenerational governance, and knowledge transfer to schools, universities, and society.
The DIGITS research group is coordinated by Dr. Cristina Mercader Juan (CRiEDO-UAB) and structures its work around two priority lines: the impact and integration of digital technologies in education, and inclusive education in educational settings. The group is composed of faculty from the UAB and the University of Lleida, with members from the fields of Didactics and Educational Organization, as well as Audiovisual Communication and Advertising. Through high-impact initiatives such as the EdU-InA, D-Eva, Orienta4VET, and O4YEL projects, the DIGITS group will continue working toward the development of teachers’ digital competence and educational guidance and inclusion across all educational levels: early childhood, primary, secondary, and higher education, paying special attention to the challenges posed in the context of GenAI.
With this dual recognition, CRiEDO consolidates its research and knowledge transfer capacity, reaffirming its commitment to improving and transforming the educational system and organizations.
