The Covid-19 pandemic has changed everyone’s life. Social researchers are no exception: they have adjusted their work to respond to emerging needs and conditions. This article provides a brief overview of social research in Ibero-America and reflects upon a series of interviews with colleagues from Mexico and the rest of Latin America, about their work as researchers and the knowledge they construct. Among the lessons that the pandemic has taught are the importance of collaborative work, the social relevance of knowledge, and responsibility to, and engagement with, the communities that are studied.

Palavras-chave : social research; engagement social; responsibility; socially relevant knowledge; collaborative work; pandemic.
