Julio Cotler Program

The Julio Cotler Program is open to young people from Latin America and the Caribbean who are at an early stage of their academic or professional trajectories, across all disciplines. Eligible profiles include:

Special consideration will be given to recent graduates and final-year undergraduate students, as well as to young people taking their first steps in academic writing and research or in political and social engagement, within the context of contemporary democratic challenges in the region.

The program aims to foster the development of first essays or academic articles. For this reason, it is primarily intended for young people who do not yet have prior publications in indexed academic journals or peer-reviewed edited volumes. However, this is not an exclusionary criterion: the Academic Committee may consider exceptional cases based on the applicant’s trajectory and the relevance of the proposal.
