Career paths in Anthropology

What professional paths can anthropology open up today? This session aims to bring students closer to real experiences of professional integration and development. We will explore areas such as social services, global justice, interculturality, youth, citizen participation and community action. Diverse profiles, with experiences in public administration, the third sector and consultancy, who show the capacity of anthropology to intervene in complex social contexts. The session will offer a space for dialogue with students to reflect on the skills, opportunities and challenges of the profession.
