The 27th Annual Conference on the Americas will be in the Miller Learning Center to be held on February 16-17, 2024, and hosted by the University of Georgia.
The Plenary Session will feature Dr. Pilar Chamorro, Associate Professor in the Department of Linguistics, on Saturday, February 17, 2024.
About the Conference
The Latin American and Caribbean Studies Institute (LACSI), the University of Georgia (UGA), and the AU/UGA Medical Partnership are hosting the 27th annual Conference on the Americas in 2024 in Athens, GA. This conference provides a venue in which faculty and students from the University System of Georgia (USG) can engage and share their interest and expertise regarding the Caribbean, Latin America and Canada. Held annually for the past 26 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.
