Recent research:
The corpus centers on the ethnographic and institutional study of Latin American anthropologies, applied anthropology, and the politics of knowledge in education and governance. Across multiple volumes and collections, the work maps diverse genealogies of Ecuadorian and broader Latin American anthropologies, foregrounding co-constructed knowledge with Indigenous communities, intercultural education, and citizenship. Methodologically, it combines bibliometric and disciplinary reflection with field-based case studies, institutional analyses of anthropology curricula, and critical reviews of missionary, church-state, and indigenous encounters. The research highlights how applied anthropology is not peripheral but essential to intercultural development, education policy, human rights discourse, and democratic governance, while dialoguing with regional editorial projects to identify shared concerns, tensions, and trajectories. The impact lies in shaping curricula, promoting dialogue on decolonial and participatory practices, and contributing to a continental map of anthropological knowledge that informs policy and education in Latin America.
