Guatemala 2020

36th Conference of Latin American Geographers

Antigua Guatemala, January 2-4, 2020

We are excited to announce that CLAG’s 50th anniversary meeting will take place in Antigua, Guatemala January 2-4, 2020. Antigua was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, thereby providing a unique, historical setting for this important meeting. The meeting will return to the same location as the 2004 CLAG gathering, the Casa Santo Domingo, formerly the Convent of Santo Domingo, which was once one of the largest in Central America. More information will be coming soon regarding rooms, sessions, field trips, etc. Field trips will take place immediately following the meeting, and will be announced in the coming months through the CLAG listserve and conference web page. Please mark your calendars now.

The rooms have been blocked from the 2nd to the 5thof January.  The Conference will begin on the evening of the 2nd with a welcome cocktail and socializing (as well as registration).  Sessions will take place on the 3rdand 4th.  The final dinner and “clausura” will take place on the evening of the 4th of January.  If you would like to stay longer, you will have to book through the normal Santo Domingo reservation system and at their usual rates.  Thank you all for your patience.

NOTE: the Santo Domingo system says “1st to 5th” on the welcome page, but then gives the 2nd to 5thon the Calendar. This is an error on their front.
