CLACS UChicago

Established in 1968, the University of Chicago Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CLACS) provides an intellectual meeting point for members of our University and extended community to study, debate, and shape the big questions surrounding Latin America.

CLACS facilitates and promotes scholarship in all regions and disciplines of Latin America by organizing and cosponsoring academic conferences, lectures, special events, and graduate workshops on campus independently and in collaboration with other departments and institutions. Please visit our website (clacs.uchicago.edu) for our calendar, as well as information on how to submit proposals for cosponsorship.
