The #Milei government kills publicly funded #research in #Argentina:
"Scientific Crisis Under Milei: Argentina to Become the Only Country in Latin America Lacking Investment in Research by 2026, Say Scientists"
Even if a next government would try to revert this, I expect the loss of trust to be persistent. Anyone here from Argentina who could provide some insights how this is being discussed amongst your scholars and students?
Excerpt:
"This measure entails the cancellation of the Scientific/Technological Research Projects (PICTs) from the 2022 call, which had already been awarded funding, along with the permanent closure of the 2023 call—previously postponed seven times and now definitively canceled as announced on December 4. Coupled with the absence of new calls in 2024 and 2025, this results in a complete lack of public funding for new research starting next year."
