Engaging Latinx Audiences Through the Cultural Roots of STEM

Type: Report/Article

A true example of self-determination and co-creation, this article was written by Cambio faculty Dr. Isabel Hawkins and long time mentor-collaborator, Yucatec Maya Elder Doña María Ávila Vera. This article introduces the concept of Comunalidad, a holistic approach to STEM as a culturally relevant and sustaining practice for the community, which is central to the Cambio approach. This is the first known instance of the concept of Comunalidad being shared in English with an American audience.
