The Interuniversity Doctoral Program in Equity and Innovation in Education is a joint project of the Universities of the northwest of the peninsula: University of Vigo (coordinating university), University of Santiago de Compostela, University of A Coruña, University of Oviedo and University of Cantabria. In these Universities we offer a common doctoral program for the training and specialization of professionals in research committed to innovation and equal opportunities in education. The program is especially aimed at promoting research on innovation processes for the improvement of school, educational and social conditions in which children and young people develop from a perspective always committed to equity. This thematic axis revolves around two lines of research: a) Processes of socio-educational inclusion and exclusion and b) Innovation for educational equity. Both lines are broken down into specific fields that will allow the research staff in training to expand and deepen their knowledge on numerous aspects related to educational equity, innovation and improvement of education.
