The Social Justice and Inclusion Thematic Hub continues Moray House's long tradition of and commitment to research and knowledge exchange aimed at understanding and addressing inequality and injustice. Our research encompasses the work of many colleagues engaged in a diverse range of research topics underpinned by the core values of equity, equal opportunity, respect for human dignity and diversity. It is multidisciplinary, uses a range of theoretical and methodological approaches, and informs policy and practice across different contexts. The aim is to create a strong research community where we share knowledge, identify new opportunities for collaboration, help members develop research capacity and provide peer support for both research staff and PGR students to maximise synergy in research. We actively engage with other thematic hubs, schools and centres across the University. Members of our Thematic Hub engage in wider cross-university and international networks, and teaching programmes that cover policy, curricular and pedagogical approaches that promote social justice and inclusion.

Centre for Educational Sociology (CES) CES carries out research in the social sciences of education that is independent, methodologically sound and explores fundamental issues about the purposes and processes of education, and of policy in education, with a starting point in Scotland, but located in the wider framework of Europe. Centre for Research in Education Inclusion and Diversity (CREID) CREID undertakes research exploring issues of inclusion and diversity in relation to children, young people and adults in education and related areas of policy and practice, including health, social welfare, training and employment. Comparative Education and International Development (CEID) Research Group CEID brings together researchers, scholars, and practitioners working on or interested in Comparative Education and/or Education and International Development. It aims to act as a hub for critical reflection and evaluation, investigating the direct and indirect potential of education by exploring its complex, interdependent relationship with social and political contexts. Race and Inclusivity in Global Education Network (RIGEN) RIGEN brings together members with an interest in race, cultural inclusivity, internationalisation and decoloniality in education. Our research spans national and international as well as formal and informal educational contexts, and our members’ work ranges from the early years to higher education. Research-led Teacher Education Network (RTEN) RTEN is an interdisciplinary network for dialogue and collaboration in research on teachers, teaching and teacher education. We facilitate knowledge exchange between academic and non-academic partners and research-led development of teacher education, drawing upon the wide range of research at the University of Edinburgh and internationally. Scottish Sensory Centre (SSC) SSC's mission is to foster educational, research and development activities relating to children and young people with a sensory impairment in Scotland. These activities are for everyone who is involved in the education of deaf, deafblind and visually impaired children and young people, as well as the young people themselves and their families. STEP - Centre for Mobile Cultures and Education STEP is a knowledge exchange centre supporting equitable access to education for traditionally nomadic cultures. We connect education leaders, teachers, and families to ensure that education is accessible, culturally relevant and has the highest expectations for all children and young people from mobile cultures in Scotland.
