The association AIBR (Network of Iberoamerican Anthropologists, from the Spanish Antropólogos Iberoamericanos en Red) started in 1996 with the creation of the portal El Rincón del Antropólogo (The Anthropologist Corner), which brought together the team of one of the first portals of anthropology in the Spanish-speaking world. The association has become a network that connects more than 7,000 anthropologists of Spain, Portugal and all the Latin American countries.

Creation of AIBR and AIBR. Revista de Antropología Iberoamericana

In November 2002, the association was legally constituted and recognized by the Minister of the Interior of Spain. Since 2001, AIBR has published the scientific journal AIBR. Revista de Antropología Iberoamericana ('Journal of Iberoamerican Anthropology') every four months, both electronically and in paper.

AIBR Annual International Conference of Anthropology

On July 7–10, 2015, the association held its first International Conference under the global theme "The human being: cultures, origins, and destiny," with over 800 delegates in Madrid (Spain). The meeting was presented by anthropologist Didier Fassin (Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton), and closed with a lecture by Aurora González Echevarria (Autonomous University of Barcelona).

The Second AIBR International Conference took place in Barcelona (http://2016.aibr.org) in September 2016, under the global theme "Identity: Bridges, Thresholds, and Barriers".. This edition opened with a plenary conference by Arturo Escobar (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill), and continued with further lectures by Tim Ingold (University of Aberdeen), Verena Stolcke (Autonomous University of Barcelona) and Manuel Delgado (University of Barcelona).

The Third AIBR International Conference of Anthropology took place in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (http://2017.aibr.org) in November 2017 and was the first edition of the AIBR Conference to take place across the Atlantic. The global theme was "Travels, crossings, displacements", and began with an inaugural lecture by Marc Augé (École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales, EHESS).

The Fourth AIBR International Conference of Anthropology took place in Granada (http://2018.aibr.org), under the general theme "Dialogues, Encounters, and Stories from the Souths.". This edition began with a plenary session by Nigel Barley and closed with a closing plenary session by Paul Stoller (West Chester University, Pennsylvania), and Maria Paula Meneses (CES Coimbra) offered a conference. Besides, a new form of meeting was introduced, with the first "Diálogo a Dos" between María Teresa del Valle (University of Basque Country) and Mónica Tarducci (University of Buenos Aires) on the connections between anthropology and feminism.
