The research group, led by Professor Sebastián Moreno, aims to strengthen social science research at Universidad ORT Uruguay, covering fields such as politics, history, sociology, cultural studies, discourse analysis, cultural diplomacy, anthropology, cultural geography, and communication. It also seeks to raise the institutional profile of these research areas and promote interdisciplinary work.
To this end, it will promote academic research and the dissemination of content through publications, courses, conferences, research projects, and other activities typical of university life, creating opportunities for the academic community to engage with and actively participate in these topics.
