AFFILIATIONS
The Pontifical Catholic University of Chile is located in central Chile, on the ancestral and dispossessed lands of the Pikunche communities of the Mapuche people, who resisted colonization by the Inca and Spanish empires. The history of displacement and forced cultural assimilation of the Mapuche people is part of the context under which our institution has produced human capital since its founding in 1888.
