In 2010 the British government launched the Canning Agenda, announcing its intention to re-engage with Latin America.
Ten years on, Canning House have undertaken a review of the progress of the Agenda in order to establish how successful it has been since its introduction, and to identify what needs to be done to accelerate the progress of a revitalised relationship between Latin America and the UK.
The Canning Agenda 10 Years On Conference is now scheduled for 10 November 2020! Join our panels of distinguished figures from government and business for high-level discussions of the Agenda's progress and future.
