The LASPP Conference was first held in 1996 and has been held annually since then. It has been organized by the graduate students from the LASPP Graduate Certificate Program at CLAS at the University of Pittsburgh.

We welcome all students, undergraduate and graduate, and faculty members who are enthusiastic about social and public policy in Latin America to submit paper proposals, panels, posters and participate in the conference.

As every year, it is a great space for discussing the current issues in Latin America and get to know more friends and colleagues interested in the region.
