Overview
The LAII connects scholars within and beyond UNM who have shared areas of interest. We work with scholars of Mexico, Central America, South America, the Spanish-speaking Caribbean, Spain, and Portugal. From faculty and students, to K-12 educators and members of the general public. Ours is a diverse and dedicated community.
