JHUPLAS
Who are we?
The Program in Latin American Studies (PLAS) at Johns Hopkins University seeks to build interdisciplinary understanding among faculty and students of histories, cultures, societies, and politics of countries in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Conference Committee
Our annual conferences is organized by outstanding graduate students from Intercambio de PLASeres, a multidisciplinary network of young scholars with a research focus on Latin America. The group's activities include forums to share on-going projects, papers and grant proposals; the conceptualization and planning of PLAS's annual conference in the Spring; sponsoring guest speakers and film series; promoting roundtable discussions of participants' summer research sponsored by PLAS; and providing a venue for scholars in training to support each other and their work.
