Events
Latin America Politics & Trade Overview
- Portcullis House, Portcullis House, London
Canning House and the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Latin America are jointly hosting an 'overview' event looking at politics and trade in Latin America. An extremely diverse region, and far from monolithic, this event will serve largely as an introduction to Latin America, the political milieu, and trade and investment overview. It will also discuss topics such as the challenges for the region after the commodity boom, highlight sectors that are particularly flourishing, and present a case study of political risks in Peru and Venezuela.
