El Laboratorio de Antropología Abierta (The Open Anthropology Lab) or LAAB is a non-profit organization for the popularization of anthropological knowledge beyond academia. Founded in 2018 by Giselle Figueroa De la Ossa, who after receiving her MSc in Anthropology from The London School of Economics returned back home to Colombia and decided to create a platform opening anthropology for public debate. The LAAB is a space in which anthropological knowledge is translated into an audiovisual language in order to bring anthropology closer to more diverse audiences. It is open to students, graduates and professionals who wish to apply anthropological methods in creative ways. Camila Castillo and Daniela Suarez Valenzuela have joined the LAAB as students and stayed to become part of the permanent team.

Today we speak with Giselle, Camila and Daniela about the experimental ways to apply anthropology in a new context to us – Colombia, and wonder what inspired the emergence of this open anthropology platform. How to create a mediating space between two anthropologies, the enclosed academic one the applied limited to industry research only? The LAAB allows for experimentation and exploration of methods that are often new to the anthropologists joining the collective. How to translate an academic text into a textbook and not distort the knowledge? How conveying ethnography to children can educate them about the social world though empathy in a non-normative way? We reflect on the challenges of organizing this experiment, the moments that make it worth going forward and the profound conviction about the anthropological power to transform the world.

The episode being in Spanish perfectly reflects the spirit of LAAB - it is a way to experiment with formats in order to hear the voice of the researcher in a new light, and to expand access of knowledge exchange.

El Laboratorio de Antropología Abierta: un espacio mediando entre la antropología acadeémica y aplicada: activando la experimentación y posibilitando la traducción del conocimiento

El Laboratorio de Antropología Abierta o el LAAB es una organización sin fines de lucro dirigida a la popularización del conocimiento antropológico más allá de la academia. Fundado en el 2018 por Giselle Figueroa De la Ossa, quien al cumplir su maestría en antropología en la London School of Economics regresó a Colombia y decidió crear una plataforma invitando a un debate público desde la antropología. El LAAB es un espacio donde el conocimiento antropológico está traducido a un lenguaje audiovisual con el objetivo de acercar la antropología a las audiencias más diversas. El LAAB está abierto a los estudiantes, graduados, y personas con perfiles más profesionales dispuestos a aplicar métodos antropológicos en unas formas creativas. Camila Castillo y Daniela Suarez Valenzuela se juntaron al Laboratorio como estudiantes y se quedaron a formar parte del equipo permanente.

El episodio siendo en español refleja el espíritu del LAAB perfectamente – es una manera de experimentar con formatos para poder escuchar la voz del investigador con un nuevo enfoque, y expandir el acceso del intercambio del conocimiento.
