The Latin American and Caribbean Studies Institute, the University of Georgia, and the AU/UGA Medical Partnership are hosting the 26th annual Conference on the Americas in 2023 in Athens, GA. This conference provides a venue in which faculty and students from the University System of Georgia can engage and share their interest and expertise regarding the Caribbean, Latin America and Canada.
Held annually for the past 25 years, we explore critical socio-cultural, political, economic, health, environmental, global, regional and national issues. While the focus of this conference is primarily for university/college faculty members, graduate and undergraduate students are encouraged to showcase their research on the Americas.
