Abstract
Applied Anthropology. Scenarios and experiences in Latin America is the Spanish translation of the dossier published in English (Human Organization vol. 81, Number 2, 2022), with the intention of promoting applied anthropology in the American continent. Its dissemination to a Spanish-speaking audience will encourage dialogue and stimulate both the teaching and the promotion of an anthropology that is attentive to responding to local needs. Through topics of hemispheric relevance -such as migration, human rights, interculturality, participatory development and university education-, the articles instruct on applied anthropology in Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Colombia, Guatemala, Argentina. The text not only contributes to the knowledge of multiple expressions of applied anthropology in these countries through case studies; It also contributes to promoting dialogue with those who practiced it in the United States and Canada. Its reading will contribute to the debate, to the dissemination of knowledge, and to its practical application.
