These FTOG are created by voluntary collaborators of the project that bring about their prior knowledge on the topic at stake and their expertise in the matter. They work following the same ruling and scientific criteria as the rest of bodies described hereby, although their organisation is not necessarily be as strict as the aforementioned ones. These will thus be groups created freely by experts on education and all related disciplines tackled within the core of the INCLUD-ED project.This flexibility in the organisation of support is providing with a broad scope of possibilities for the coordination teams to organise the research task.
Currently, there are four FTOG in the project:
