On 5 September this year CEDES celebrated its thirtieth year of academic work and institutional continuity by organizing an event at the Malba-Colección Costantini auditorium. On this occasion a round table was held with the participation of Silvina Ramos, CEDES director and researcher; Oscar Oszlak, CEDES founding member and current researcher; Catalina Smulovitz, former CEDES assistant; María del Carmen Feijoó, former CEDES researcher and Roberto Bouzas, researcher at FLACSO and at the Universidad de San Andrés. A cocktail was served after the meeting. We wish to thank all those who were present that day and invite them to recall the celebration through the pictures, speeches and greeting messages we received.
