CURIOUS – Centre de Recherche en Psychologie Socioculturelle

The centre of research in sociocultural psychology studies the development of people in complex social situations that are themselves in development. This research shares a socio-cultural and dialogical orientation that invites the study of people’s activities and the meanings conferred on these situations.
