La investigation action educativa en education afectivosexual: una metodología para el cambio social.

Sometimes, research in social sciences becomes part of the transformative practices of the researchers themselves. In this way, these researchers try to promote social change. This paper is about one of those studies. During the realization of my PhD research, on sexual-affective education in two schools in the city of Granada (Spain) from the sociological view, both the research and the educational action work that seeks social change converged to the point that, once we had taken account of the demand of the reality being researched, educational action research became the most appropriate methodology in order to research acting on education for social change towards sexual and gender equality. In this paper, I will talk about all this process, which is methodological, systematic, and respectful of the scientific value of research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
