The Institute of Sociology of the University of Porto was founded in 1989 with the aim of promoting research in this specific area of knowledge, assembling also the heritage of other social sciences.
Articulating its goals and activities with those of the Department of Sociology of the Faculty of Arts of the University of Porto, the Institute of Sociology is open to the region, the country and the world as a catalyst for debate and scientific innovation.

In 2002, IS-UP joined the network of scientific units of the Foundation for Science and Technology of the Ministry of Education and Science, and experienced, especially since that moment, a pathway of growth and qualification that has led to an intense activity, developed on a daily basis by 72 researchers, several Ph.D and Post-Ph.D fellows.

Multiple projects have been developed, involving a vast network of partnerships, particularly with public institutions and associations. Public policies is one of the most cross-cutting aspects that have been worked on.

Focused on fundamental research and on providing socially relevant services, the Institute of Sociology seeks to create an increasingly active involvement within the community, alongside the dissemination of research outcomes, in order to attract new audiences to scientific knowledge, and in particular to the sociological approach to reality.

ISCTE – University Institute of Lisbon (ISCTE-IUL) is a public university established in 1972 and a leading institution in social sciences and business sciences in Portugal. Pursuing teaching, research and community service activities, it plays a major role in training qualified specialists and personnel, whose cultural, scientific and technical skills enable them to contribute to social, cultural and economic development both at the national and the global level.

Its main scientific areas are sociology and public policy, but it also develops relevant activity in political science, communication, education, urban studies, social work and modern and contemporary history.

The Centre performs research in socially important fields and has specific and established competences in the study of public policy. On this basis, it carries out important work in the transfer of knowledge to institutions and the community in general.
