In 2018, the deans of the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences supported a multi-year initiative led by a new cohort of junior faculty, Latin America in a Globalizing World. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2022, the Program in Latin American, Caribbean, and Latinx Studies was relaunched with a new cross-divisional faculty advisory board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program ended in Spring 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
