Observatory for the Analysis and Visibility of Social Exclusion

El Observatory for the Analysis and Visibility of Social Exclusion , was born with the purpose of investigating situations, processes and structures of social exclusion, giving them visibility with communication campaigns and creating intervention projects to collaborate in their eradication. This materializes, as one more manifestation of university social responsibility, the firm commitment of the Rey Juan Carlos University in betting on the equality of all people, as well as in the generation of vital opportunities for them. This Observatory is made up of an interdisciplinary group of PDIs, led from Sociology (social research) and Social Work (social intervention) of this University. For its part, the IDEX Group, a leader in social communication, will be the external partner that would implement the strategy of dissemination and awareness of the investigated reality, financing itself through corporate CSR. The University and civil society join forces to improve the quality of life of the most vulnerable people.

OBJECTIVES:

  1. Investigate and analyze situations, processes and structures of social exclusion.
  2. Launch media campaigns to make society in general aware of the previously studied situations, processes and structures of social exclusion.
  3. Generate social intervention projects for the phenomena analyzed.
