History and Relevance

DEDiCA. REVISTA DE EDUCAÇÃO E HUMANIDADES was created with the intention of being an academic platform for publishing scientific research in the fields of Education, Humanities, and Arts. Its name, DEDiCA, is derived from the Research Group HUM-742 D.E.Di.C.A. (Educational Development of Didactics in the Andalusian Community), established in 2002 under the leadership of Dr. María Angustias Ortiz Molina, who was also the scientific director of the journal until May 2012. This research group was initially attached to the Department of Didactics of Musical, Plastic, and Bodily Expression at the University of Granada, with its headquarters in the Faculty of Education Sciences of the university.

Since its inception, the journal has focused on promoting pedagogical and scientific research, fostering the dissemination of research processes that aim to enrich the fields of Education, Humanities, and Arts. Although the Research Group HUM-742 changed its name and lines of inquiry after Dr. Ortiz Molina's departure, the journal has continued with the same name and editorial principles.

Currently, DEDiCA is sponsored by the Research Group HUM-672 A.R.E.A. (Analysis of Educational Reality), based at the Department of Didactics and Educational Organization at the University of Granada. Throughout its history, the journal has been published annually, with an exception for issues 11 to 16, during which it adopted a semi-annual publication frequency. Since issue 17, the journal has adopted a continuous publication model, ensuring greater accessibility and content updates. Additionally, the editorial board reserves the right to publish special thematic issues as deemed appropriate.

The relevance of DEDiCA lies in its commitment to disseminating high-quality research in its areas of focus, providing a platform for visibility to studies that contribute to the advancement of social and educational sciences, both nationally and internationally.
