Este libro, editado por el Programa de Promoción de Vocaciones Científicas (VocAr) perteneciente a la Dirección de Relaciones Institucionales del CONICET, es producto del trabajo colectivo de personas que formamos del grupo ¿De qué hablamos cuando hablamos de Chagas? (CONICET-UNLP-CIIE). Cada u...na de sus páginas da cuenta del trabajo interdisciplinario que se viene llevando a cabo desde el grupo, a partir del cual se busca desarrollar un abordaje que refleje la complejidad de la problemática del Chagas. Se apuesta a construir y fomentar diversas formas de mirar y entender el tema -desde múltiples disciplinas, lenguajes y escenarios- porque consideramos que no hay un solo grupo de personas autorizadas para hablar de Chagas, ni una sola manera de hacerlo. El objetivo principal es promover el abordaje de la problemática del Chagas desde una perspectiva integral e innovadora en diferentes contextos educativos.
