Difficulties, motivations, underfundding, young researchersResumen
En este texto discutimos el futuro de la etnobiología argentina en base a una encuesta on line y a un workshop realizado junto a jóvenes que practican la disciplina. Luego de una caracterización de las temáticas, los sitios de desarrollo, así como las motivaciones y dificultades referidas por los participantes, encontramos que los jóvenes están preocupados por su futuro profesional en el contexto actual de desfinanciamiento y desprestigio de la actividad científica que se encuentra Argentina. Discutimos la necesidad de articular en red y de mejorar la representatividad de la etnobiología en el grado y el postgrado de las universidades argentinas.
