The Association of Latina/o & Latinx Anthropologists is a section of the American Anthropological Association, founded in 1990.
ALLA’s mission is:
- To support student and early career scholars working toward excellence in anthropological research and practice by, with, and about Latinx peoples in the U.S., however they are identified;
- To highlight scholarship and practice that is ideologically, epistemologically, and methodologically substantive and diverse;
- To enable a sustained diverse analysis of contemporary issues facing Latinx communities in the U.S. and those with whom they share common experiences, histories, or languages.
Mentorship Program
ALLA’s Mentoring Program aims to foster a more supportive community among faculty and students from different academic institutions. Faculty and junior scholars are paired based on research interests, geographical region, and subfield. Faculty mentors and mentees will meet each other via Zoom in September to set the basis for continued communication between mentors and their students.
