Researches from various areas of knowledge converge within the institute, both humanities and social sciences, and it tends to encourage disciplinary interaction between them. In that sense, one of its main objectives is to promote the development of new projects and programs that allow the research groups to grow and consolidate, as well as to enhance the generation of necessary lines in connection with the needs of the environment and the region.

Additionally, the institute tends to interact with other CCT institutes, centers and departments from UNL and other national and regional institutions, in order to co-ordinate specific actions to promote science and technology.

IHUCSO proposes to achieve a clear articulation between bachelor and postgraduate levels of college careers and investigation lines from the executing unit (EU), as well as to stimulate links with other national and international universities and organisms that promote international cooperation and internalization in humanities and social sciences area.

The institute also aims to favor the increase of transfer based on available cognitive technologies and services, and achieve greater linkage of knowledge and skills with strategies for development and social welfare. Moreover, it tends to generate new strategies to communicate and interact with society, and to reach an active participation in extension and investigation projects oriented to social action.

Last but not least, IHUCSO promotes the coexistence of researchers, scholars, support staff (CPA) and administrative staff in order to improve communication and social interchange. This possibility of raising interaction skills is directed by the objectives of generating and promoting mechanisms to favor training in values that promote respect for diversity and gender equality.
