Results – Comprehensive impact of the political, economic and financial sanctions applied to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela
Since 2020, the Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO) and the Ministry of Popular Power for Science and Technology (MINCyT) in Venezuela have resumed and developed strategies towards strengthening the social sciences and humanities within the framework of the health situation that the whole world is going through, the Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2).
In this context, a joint call for proposals was issued by CLACSO and the Venezuelan Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MINCyT) to investigate the comprehensive impact of coercive, political, economic, and financial measures applied to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela . The call received a total of 11 applications, which were technically reviewed.
The evaluation process was carried out by a Commission composed of representatives from CLACSO and the Venezuelan Ministry of Science and Technology. This Commission considered the quality, relevance, and coherence of the projects in accordance with the call for proposals.
