Tropical Conservation & Development Program
UF Center for Latin American Studies
Thanks to UF’s International Center for their highlight of our new transdisciplinary participatory research exchange in partnership with Universidad Amazónica de Pando in Bolivia.
The project builds on a transdisciplinary research and mentor program that began with the Governance and Infrastructure in the Amazon project ( see https://giamazon.org ). Working with professors from UF, UAP, and partner institutions, we collaborate with community mentors to establish collaborative applied research on pressing issues of concern and promote cross-cultural experiences for participants. Our goals include building research capacity for undergraduate students at UAP and research and mentorship capacity for graduate students at UF.
