Building a Collective Future for Central American Studies Symposium

The field of Central American Studies is at a critical juncture, calling for deeper collaboration, strategic growth, and a collective vision for the future. Unity and Solidarity: Building a Collective Future for Central American Studies is an inaugural symposium that brings together scholars, educators, community leaders, and advocates to engage in vital conversations about the past, present, and future of the field.

This gathering will explore key themes such as the role of Central American Studies in academia, the impact of grassroots organizing, and the importance of transnational solidarity in shaping narratives and policies that uplift Central American communities. Through dynamic panels, roundtable discussions, and interactive workshops, participants will co-create strategies to sustain and expand the field while fostering interdisciplinary and intergenerational dialogue.

Join us for a transformative day of knowledge-sharing, networking, and coalition-building as we envision a more inclusive, just, and empowered future for Central American Studies.
