Scientific communication is an integral part of the project. The project operates in two interrelated modalities.
First, it highlights the importance of political education in the various civil societies in each of the regions. It creates didactic material for political education on the three research axes that can be applied in different contexts such as adult education, school and university education.
The didactic maps are complemented by thematic folders that provide context to the didactic units. To this end, we seek cooperation and exchange with NGOs.
In an intermediate way the didactic material is articulated with short films that are produced by the project in a second way of science communication. The project will open a competition for short films on concrete examples, ideas and utopias to overcome historically rooted patterns of landed super-wealth. The best films will be screened at the different project sites as well as at film festivals (e.g. the Guadalajara International Film Festival, Mexico).
"Turning Land into Capital" seeks to contribute through critical historical research to key current debates on the legitimacy of wealth, land concentration, the transformation of landscapes its impact on Latin American societies, the global world order and the environment.
