The Working Group on the Environment and Latin America (WGELA) is a collaborative effort between Duke University, UNC, and NC State undergraduate and graduate students to promote a rich comprehension of environmental issues in Latin America through interdisciplinary collaboration. It has been in existence since 1990, as the Health and Environment in Latin America.

The Modernity/Coloniality and the Geopolitics of Knowledge Working Group has existed since 2000. Its aim has been to investigate contemporary social, cultural, political, and economic transformations in Latin America/Caribbean from critical cultural, epistemological, and epistemic perspectives, highlighting how they are discussed and theorized in Latin America itself. The group thus privileges the tradition of pensamiento critico latinoamericano.
