Santiago Genovés (31 December 1923 – 5 September 2013) was a Spanish-born Mexican anthropologist who was affiliated with the National Autonomous University of Mexico. He is known for designing the 1973 "Peace Project" experiment, in which he and ten other people (four men and six women) aimed to sail on the Acali raft from the Canary Islands to Mexico. He hoped that this experiment would shed light on the causes of violence in humans and on how it could be prevented. The 101-day experiment, frequently dubbed the "Sex Raft" by the media, was the subject of the 2018 documentary film The Raft, by Marcus Lindeen. He was also one of the researchers who originated, co-authored and signed the Seville Statement on Violence in 1986.

  • Santiago Genovés Tarazaga (Orense, 31 de diciembre de 1923 - 5 de septiembre de 2013)​​ fue un antropólogo e investigador social hispano-mexicano. Siendo un adolescente al finalizar la guerra civil española, junto con su familia se exilió en México. Tras haber pasado un tiempo, él y su familia, en un campo de concentración en Francia.​ Antropólogo graduado en la Escuela Nacional de Antropología e Historia del Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia, ambos de México, y doctor en antropología por la Universidad de Cambridge, Reino Unido, fue investigador emérito en la UNAM tras su jubilación, cuyas aportaciones científicas han sido valoradas y reconocidas internacionalmente.​ Realizó estudios sobre el comportamiento humano para lo cual emprendió tres importantes y destacados viajes en las balsas RA I, RA II y Acali a fin de cruzar el océano Atlántico y en los que condujo un verdadero "laboratorio del comportamiento humano" del que los sujetos no podían salir. Los dos primeros viajes que realizó con el explorador y etnólogo noruego Thor Heyerdahl, tuvieron el objetivo de verificar la posibilidad de travesías trasatlánticas antes de la expedición de Cristóbal Colón, y el tercero, muy específicamente, para estudiar la conducta de los hombres y mujeres que participaron en el experimento.​ Realizó y dirigió la película ¿Pax?, documento fílmico en el que aborda los mitos y prejuicios en torno a la violencia en sus diversas formas, cuyo guion fue galardonado por el Memorial Juan XXIII de la Paz.​ (es)
