EDO is engaged in various lines of research through its working groups. These groups are open, meaning that EDO members can be in more than one group, either simultaneously or consecutively over time. Group coordination, however, usually remains in the hands of the same person.
The focus of the group’s scientific activity is, from a systemic and complex perspective, the analysis and Organizational Development of training institutions considered as the contexts in which any type of educational and training process occurs.
It includes three major lines of work:
- The development of institutions focused on the global improvement of organizations.
