A new wave of anti-Americanism and populism is gaining strength in Latin America. Join us for a presentation and discussion on the challenges of Latin American Populism and efforts to counter the problem by improving education in the Americas. Populism, weak rule of law, and general lack of access to good education have made emigration to the U.S. the most attractive alternative for many desperate people. Is there anything to be done or that is being done to address this issue?

The speakers featured in this program including policy experts, a government official (our keynote speaker is Minister of Education for Guatemala), and think tank leaders, play important roles in Latin America civil society.

Please register here by October 29.
