Event in Spanish with simultaneous translation to English

This encounter as Latin American researchers and activists aims to dialogue on building historical memory from feminist and queer perspectives. Thus, this roundtable discussion will reflect on ethical concerns from the economy of care with and for grassroots communities and the significance of social research in the contexts of political and social violence. We will focus on the Colombian and Brazilian cases regarding theoretical, methodological, and ethical concerns from Latin American critical viewpoints. Moreover, we want to reflect on the role of social researchers in analyzing the communities’ resistance processes and the reconstruction of the social fabric.
