The project is led by Dr Ángela Cristina Carrillo Ramos, Associate Professor at PUJ's Department of Systems Engineering.

Moreover, Fabregat was also a member of the Thesis Committee evaluating PhD candidate Diana Janeth Lancheros Cuesta. The title of her doctoral dissertation was "Sistemas adaptativos de apoyo a los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje orientados a estudiantes con discapacidad".

In addition,  Fabregat delivered the course "Inclusive, accessible virtual learning environment", one of the modules PUJ's MSc in Engineering is made up of. The goals and results of the "Inclusive Learning" project were part of the course syllabus. This project was also presented to the academic staff of the Department of System Engineering.

While in Columbia Fabregat also held a meeting with Dr Yezid Donoso, President of IEEE - Colombia and Associate Professor at Universidad de Los Andes.
