Latin American Council of Social Sciences

Since some professors in university gave me this website, I  interested in their approach and wide variety of material.
The Latin American Council of Social Sciences  (CLACSO) is an international non-governmental organization created in 1967, that maintain formal consultative relations with UNESCO. Currently, meets a total of 293  research centers and teaching programs and postgraduate degree in Social Sciences based in 25 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, U.S. and Europe. 
In this website I can found  notes, articles and journals related to education in Latin America and a extensive virtual library with books and authors of great benefit to our training as educators critics.
The Council's objectives are the promotion and development of research and teaching of Social Sciences, the strengthening exchange and cooperation among institutions and researchers inside and outside the region, and the proper dissemination of knowledge produced by scientists between social forces, social movements and civil society organizations. Through these activities CLACSO contributes to rethink, from a critical and plural perspective, the integral problem of Latin American and Caribbean societies. 
CLACSO is one of the sites most important social sciences worldwide and I think we should use it, mostly because we have free access the all documents from the website.
I invite you to visit it!    http://www.clacso.org.ar/
