¿QUIÉNES SOMOS?
The URBES-LAB Research Center is a non-profit civil association. Our work is framed in three axes:
CENTRO DE INVESTIGACIÓN
Our research agenda seeks to generate evidence-based debate to influence Peruvian academia and public policy. Our team of researchers guarantees rigorous and transparent work.
AGENTES DE TRANSFORMACIÓN
Nuestras iniciativas académicas están orientadas a generar espacios de aprendizaje y debate para estudiantes universitarios y recién egresado/as que estén interesado/as en los estudios urbanos. De esta manera fomentamos la investigación como ejercicio profesional
DIFUSORES DE CONOCIMIENTO
We firmly believe that knowledge should serve for social transformation. For this reason, we seek to influence the development of an active and responsible citizenship, through the dissemination of research results in simple formats that can be easily understood by the population and/or can serve as support for citizen claims.
Vision
URBES-LAB is a multidisciplinary research center where the challenges of the production of urban space in Peru and Latin America are analyzed and debated in order to produce new theoretical and methodological knowledge that contributes to social transformation, changes in academic paradigms and the relevant implementation of public policies.
Mission
The URBES-LAB Research Center generates a space for meeting, debate and development of research on relevant topics of the production of urban space, in its different scales and temporalities. It also promotes the training of university students and professionals in the field of research on urban studies. It also provides support to civil society groups seeking to exercise their right to the city.
Valores
Nuestros valores son la credibilidad, la vocación de servicio, la organización, la integridad y la colaboración.
