We are delighted to announce that the next conference of the Society for Irish Latin American Studies will take place in Havana, Cuba. The Conference will be co-hosted by the Oficina del Historiador de La Habana and the Colegio Universitario de San Gerónimo on February 16-18, 2017. This follows the very successful SILAS conference at University College Cork, Ireland, in 2015.  

The conference seeks to bring together scholars from across disciplines who are interested in connections between Ireland, Cuba, the Caribbean, Latin America, and the Iberian Peninsula. We invite individual proposals for twenty-minute presentations (papers/posters) or for panels of three people exploring a similar theme.

Please submit an abstract of no more than 250 words by September 23 to the SILAS Conference Academic Planning Committee, at this email address [email protected]
