The Latin American Elections Hub (LATAM-EH) aims to foster dialogue between U.S. audiences and Latin America. To that end, the Hub organizes panels focused on the region’s most significant elections, examining their broader implications for the United States and assessing potential democratic risks.

To launch the program, we will host a discussion on the 2026 Peruvian presidential elections, scheduled for April 12.
