Meet the groupResearch Group on Childhood, Adolescence and Families
The GRIAF group (Research Group on Childhood, Adolescence, and Families) was created in 1995 to address the gaps in knowledge and intervention methodologies that existed in the field of social maladjustment and child protection. The interest and experience of the group's members led to the formation of a multidisciplinary team with a theoretical and practical perspective that would help raise awareness of these needs and initiate a research process that would inform the practice of professionals.
Featured projects
The research group aims to address three major scientific challenges aligned with the lines of research and recommendations made by international organizations and social and educational policies to advance the improvement of socio-educational initiatives for children, adolescents, and their families in vulnerable situations.
