Purposes and Functions of the Association

The Canadian Association for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CALACS) was founded in 1969 with the following purposes in mind:

CALACS conferences are held every 18 months. The association also sponsors thematic workshops and events with other Canadian area studies associations. We are proud to support a widely respected interdisciplinary periodical, the Canadian Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Studies, which has published continuously since 1976. The Association publishes a newsletter biannually, and through the generosity of the Canadian Foundation for the Americas (FOCAL) we are able to award a prize for the outstanding dissertation on Latin America and the Caribbean done at a Canadian university.

Please accept a warm invitation to join us .
