2024 Edition
El Programa Julio Cotler fue creado en 2024, en el marco de la celebración del 20º aniversario de la fundación de Obreal, como un homenaje al Profesor Julio Cotler (1932–2019). Figura intelectual central de la primera etapa de Obreal, su convicción en el poder transformador de la educación superior para hacer frente a las desigualdades sociales inspira esta iniciativa. Se trata de un programa orientado a promover el análisis y el diálogo sobre los principales desafíos que enfrentan las democracias en América Latina.
It is presented as a dynamic platform that seeks to promote emerging critical Latin American voices to rethink the structures of contemporary democracies, with the aim of encouraging academic production by young people from Latin America and the Caribbean.
