Latin America Research Seminar

About LARS:

Research is the lifeblood of academia, just as evidence and analysis are the basis for sound policy decisions. Georgetown faculty, visiting researchers and fellows, and doctoral students whose work focuses on Latin America and the Caribbean engage in fascinating inquiry on an array of topics, in a myriad of contexts, using a diverse set of research methods. CLAS has established a Latin America Research Seminar (LARS) so that our community can learn about, celebrate, and promote their work.

Participation in LARS:

We encourage Georgetown faculty, visiting researchers and fellows, and doctoral students whose work focuses on Latin America and the Caribbean to capitalize on this opportunity to share, and get multidisciplinary feedback on, their research.

If you are interested in presenting your ongoing or recently completed research in LARS, please email Diana Kapiszewski (dk784@georgetown.edu) indicating (1) the month in which you would like to present; (2) the topic of your presentation.

With regard to attending LARS, sessions are open to the entire university community, and to the public.
