The Board of Directors of the Faculty determined by the specific topic, and the Dean coordinated the edition together with the Abya-Yala Publishing House. The Editorial Board was unique to all the journals of the University. In July 2010, an Editorial Board was created specifically for Alteridad.
Concerned about the quality of the articles, in 2011 a process of improvement begins on the journal: a) the scope of its publications is delimited to the Education Area; b) the Editorial Board is renewed and expanded with teachers from the Education Area; c) Considering the arbitration of the articles constitutes one of the key processes to give quality to the articles, a Council of Reviewers (January-June 2012) is constituted.
In 2013, it is indexed in Journals of Higher Education and Educational Research (IRESIE), also in the Directory of Open Acces Journals (DOAJ).
