Recent research:
Across the collected publications, the author advances a cohesive profile at the intersection of Education and Society, focusing on how governance, policy and ethical dimensions shape educational practice in Latin America, with a pronounced emphasis on Ecuador and Salesian educational contexts. The work analyzes structural and sociocultural transformations impacting university management, the influence of neoliberal policy on educational equity, and the ethical responsibilities of research in intercultural and indigenous education. Methodologically, the corpus uses documentary analysis, case studies of graduate profiles, narrative/systematization of experiences, and literature-based reflection to illuminate how curricula, professional formation, and pedagogical systems (including Don Bosco’s Preventive System) shape transformative, community-oriented education. The impact lies in clarifying how institutional governance and policy interact with pedagogy and research practice to promote inclusive, emancipatory education within crisis contexts and formative intercultural settings. The researcher also documents collaborative networks (IUS Education Group) that produce collective reflections and practical intervention models for education within Salesian missions, underscoring the role of ethical commitments and participatory processes in knowledge production.
