Abstract

The World Council of Anthropological Associations (WCAA) is a network of national, regional, and international organizations. Its goal is to shed light on the plurality of contemporary global anthropology. Born from the initiative of Latin American anthropologists, the WCAA works to integrate and showcase the “other anthropologies” existing outside of North America and Europe.
