Former UPPGAP visiting PhD student @AnandaWinter is now a PhD! Our warmest congratulations, Ananda, and best of luck!
Yesterday, I defended my Doctoral Thesis "Gender Parity in Latin America: a Concrete Reality and a Distant Horizon" and became a Doctor of Political Science. In addition to being a moment of great joy, it was an engaging and inspiring afternoon.
