The Center for Latin American Studies (CLAS) at UC Berkeley is a National Resource Center dedicated to promoting research and community awareness about issues affecting Latin America.

The Center works to:

* host public events that bring leading scholars, policymakers and social leaders to the Berkeley community;

* support faculty and student research;

* bring information about Latin America to a wider audience through our website and publications;

* build networks among Latin Americanist scholars, students and practitioners.
