The Project
For 15 years and more, Chile has been a place of inspiration, learning, and discovery for Harvard University.
Supported by the DRCLAS Regional Office in Chile, and in collaboration with their Chilean peers, Harvard scientists and researchers have studied some of the Chilean various unique features.
Journalist Paula Molina, Harvard Nieman Fellow ‘13, decided to find and translate to a broader audience some of their findings, in an exercise to highlight this research and its contribution to the creation of new knowledge-based in her country.
DRCLAS AND THE REGIONAL OFFICE
Brian D. Farrell
"The demonstrated success of the DRCLAS Office in Santiago inspired the establishment of a second overseas office in 2006 in Sao Paulo, Brazil and in 2012 of an office in Mexico City. Today, other Harvard centers are following our model in establishing offices in Shanghai and Johannesburg."

"I think these chapters reflect very well the value of having a Harvard Office in Santiago, Chile. I want to thank Paula for her generosity in sharing this eBook with us. The testimonies collected by her serve as an inspiration for continuing our work and for building new bridges between Harvard and the region."
