The LACS Graduate Lecture Series
In an era where critical knowledge is facing scrutiny, and the study of Latin America and the Caribbean has evolved into a more intricate, interconnected endeavor, the LACS Graduate Lecture Series seeks to highlight the cutting-edge research and innovative ideas cultivated by our graduate students. Throughout these monthly lectures, our graduate students will assert their roles as professionally trained scholars, providing insights into their work and offering glimpses into its future potential. The objective is to inspire and motivate the academic community, prompting thoughtful reflection on governmental policies and budget allocations, and fostering the advancement of Latin American and Caribbean studies and its community.
