I am currently studying anthropology at the University of Chile, I am in my second year of my degree. One of the reasons why I entered the university was because of its curriculum, which I consider to be very well structured. The first two years are the initial cycle, so we have introductory courses to the world of anthropology such as the formation of modern society, fundamental problems of anthropology, philosophy of social sciences, social theory, complex societies, contemporary problems of anthropology, among others.  The total duration of the course is five years and has three different mentions, on the one hand, there is the mention of social anthropology focused mainly on the study of contemporary human groups, physical anthropology oriented to the study of human biology in relation to culture and archaeology that deals with the investigation and analysis of the material culture of societies of the remote and recent past. It is worth mentioning that, although the initial duratio

When I finish my degree I would like to work as a social anthropologist with a focus on migration. However, I have not yet determined whether this is what I really want, as I still have a long way to go in my career and discipline, but so far I really like this branch of knowledge and all that it entails. The anthropological understanding of migration, both past and present, is something that really appeals to me, especially understanding the current context of what is happening globally with migration and the impacts it is having on a socio-cultural level.   My dream is to work in an intergovernmental body in the elaboration of public policies that determine what I want to do and what I intend to do. In that sense, working in an agency like UNHCR (The UN Refugee Agency) would be the ideal way to have a proactive impact on the changes that need to be generated. I believe that the skills and abilities that anyone working in intergovernmental organisations should have are negotiation, ef

I consider that travelling to the future is better than travelling to the past because I can have indications of things that I can improve in the present. However, I consider that travelling to the past is also an excellent option because I can correct mistakes in the present that may be a consequence of my past, I would also love to meet historical figures like Martin Luther King or to be in moments and experiences that have determined the future, like the first world war, so that I can change and modify the things that were the triggers.   But, as I said, travelling to the future is better than travelling to the past. I would like to observe in the future the consequences of the actions of human beings, such as savage capitalism, especially after the year 2100. However, I consider that it is not the best option to stay in the future, as travelling to the present could change those situations to avoid them. However, I would like to travel even further into the future, around the year

My best trip during a holiday was in the summer of 2021, in this trip I had the opportunity to go to the Lake District, precisely I was in Puerto Montt, Puerto Varas, Ensenada and Frutillar, during this trip I spent two and a half weeks.  Most of the time I was in the city of Puerto Montt, although I already knew it and I don't consider it to be the most beautiful place in the world, I had the opportunity to meet people that I value deeply and that have become very important people in my life. During this trip I went with my partner and friends joined me along the way.  Among the things I did were volunteer work, seeing beautiful landscapes, eating a lot and visiting those places. On this trip I had the opportunity to go around Lake Llanquihue on a catamaran, as well as in a kayak. I remember that one of those days we had the wonderful and crazy idea to walk in the rain along a road to Ensenada, we ended up soaking wet hahahaha.  This trip has been the best so far because beyond go

A country I would like to visit. Without a doubt it would be the Netherlands, the quality of life is very good, and the way in which the state administers public policies and looks after its citizens is admirable, it has been characterised in this sense by reforming institutions such as the family and in this way allowing the entry of new ways of social coexistence. In addition, it has several places of great tourist interest, a clear example of this is the museum of Anne Frank's house, as well as the Vincent Van Gogh museum, the tourism sector in the country provides about 640,000 jobs a year. Amsterdam is the capital of the country and is one of the most visited destinations, what strikes me deeply is the main means of transport they use, which is the bicycle.  I would love to get to know the main tourist centres, as well as through the stories of citizens to know their opinion about the public policies implemented in the country, however, it is not my only interest since by know

Many topics are very interesting to me, however not all of them have the characteristic of attracting me to study them, one of those topics that I am passionate about and that generates me joy and enthusiasm to investigate them is with respect to public policies and the global knowledge of them, especially when it has the character of how anthropology can influence the construction of these.  In fact, one of the main reasons why I chose a career in the social sciences was precisely because of how we can influence them, it has always been a very interesting topic for me since I consider that through these we not only build in the proposal of an objective, It has always been a very interesting subject for me since I consider that through these we do not only build in the proposition of an objective, but that being intermediary agents between the state and communities, we have the responsibility to be propositional and defend the construction of what emerges in the formulation of the stud
