The Research Group on Historical-Educational Policies, Sociabilities, and Representations (PSORHE) was created in 2000 as a collaborative initiative between professors and students of both the Technological University of Pereira (UTP) and the Universidad Industrial de Santander (UIS). At the beginning, the group focused its research activities on urban-regional history, Colombian and Latin American political action during the 20th century, and the history of universities in Colombia and Latin America. However, with the incorporation of new members, it has gradually broadened its lines of action.

PSORHE has consolidated its position in the academic field through its participation in the Doctorate in Educational Sciences (Rudecolombia), developed by the UTP. The group has participated in several initiatives at the national level, including the project “Bicentennial of Independence” conducted between 2008 – 2010 and the project “Press, education, and political orientation in the liberal republic: El Diario de Pereira and Vanguardia Liberal”, funded by Colciencias (now MINCIENCIAS), during the years 2013 and 2016. It also obtained funding from the Bank of the Republic for the project “Memories of an Era” (2011-2013).
Between 2016 and 2019, the group carried out another project supported by COLCIENCIAS: “The decline of the anti-systemic utopia: the conflict, the university, and the commitment to achieve peace in Colombia”. In 2020, it started the project “Resistance in audiovisual and editorial cultural productions as an alternative to poetic memory of the Colombian armed conflict, 1987-2016” funded jointly by the UIS, MINCIENCIAS, and the National Center of Historical Memory.
On the other hand, the group has contributed to the creation of the Doctorate in Education (Rudecolombia) and the Master’s Degree in History at the UTP, as well as the design of the Doctorate in History, the Master’s Degree in Human Rights, the Master’s Degree in Social Research, and the undergraduate degree in History and Archival Studies at the UIS. Furthermore, it has supported the development of 35 doctoral theses, 63 master’s theses, and 117 undergraduate theses. As a result of its performance, PSORHE is classified in the highest category (A1) of MINCIENCIAS.
