Welcome to SILAS 2023, the Society for Irish Latin America Studies conference, entitled: 

‘Reimaginings and Reconstructions’

Ireland, Latin America, Spain and the Caribbean in Times of Change and Uncertainty.

This 3-day event at the Moore Institute will explore re-imaginings and reconstructions on personal, micro, or macrolevels and that connect Ireland, Latin American and the Caribbean in a real or an imagined sense.

Following on a virtual SILAS conference in Peru in 2021, we are delighted to bring together in person scholars, researchers, students, and creatives from Ireland, Latin America, Spanish speaking North America, the Caribbean and Iberia. The first biannual SILAS conference took place at the Centre for Irish Studies, University of Galway, in 2007. This will be a hybrid event with in-person and virtual presentations.
