New web portal on researchers at risk

CAPAZ is pleased to present its new website: 

www.academicxsenriesgo.org

This initiative has been conceived by researchers Francesca Lessa and Rosario Figari Layús, the latter, a CAPAZ collaborator from her postdoctoral position for the Chair of Peace Studies at the Justus Liebig University Giessen. 

The website promotes the Red Académicxs en Riesgo (Academics at Risk Network) and aims to raise awareness about the risk, threats, and violence that academics are subject to, mainly in conflict and post-conflict contexts, and those who research issues of social, political, and economic relevance. The website is available in Spanish and offers information about the Network, calls for proposals, publications, and related news.
