The Forensic Anthropology Research Group (GIAF) brings together anthropologists and archaeologists from the Faculty of Humanities and Education at the University of the Republic in Uruguay. Since 2005, the team has been carrying forward the search for people who were detained and disappeared during Uruguay's most recent civil-military dictatorship.

It currently operates under the ambit of Uruguay's National Human Rights Institution and Ombudsman (INDDHH).
