The Consortium in Latin American and Caribbean Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University was created in 1990, formally recognizing fifty years of informal cooperation between the two universities. The geographic proximity of the campuses—just nine miles apart—greatly encourages and facilitates regular collaboration among faculty and students. The UNC and Duke Consortium has received major funding from the Andrew W. Mellon, Ford, and Tinker Foundations. Since 1991 it has been designated a Title VI National Resource Center (NRC) by the U.S. Department of Education.

101. The Working Group on the Environment and Latin America (WGELA) is a collaborative
effort between Duke University, UNC, and NC State undergraduate and graduate
students to promote a rich comprehension of environmental issues in Latin America
through interdisciplinary collaboration. It has been in existence since 1990, as the Health
and Environment in Latin America.
107. The Modernity/Coloniality and the Geopolitics of Knowledge Working Group has
existed since 2000. Its aim has been to investigate contemporary social, cultural,
political, and economic transformations in Latin America/Caribbean from critical
cultural, epistemological, and epistemic perspectives, highlighting how they are
discussed and theorized in Latin America itself. The group thus privileges the tradition
of pensamiento critico latinoamericano.
