Additional information
The visiting researcher must possess the capacity for independent work and self-directed learning. From a broad perspective within the social sciences, the research line encompasses the following areas of study: gender as an analytical category, ethnicity, vulnerable groups, and experiences of historical memory in transitional justice processes, presented in a comparative manner. Notably, the context of the Colombian armed conflict holds particular significance.
As part of an ongoing research project within the proposed research line of inquiry, a digital observatory is being constructed. Consequently, visiting researchers may be invited to participate in activities that contribute to the development of this observatory.
