With persistent problems of crime and violence, ongoing migration challenges, lackluster regional economic growth, continuing concerns about corruption in many countries, and uncertainties about the new US administration’s policies, Central America faces a complicated and unsettled situation.

The Dialogue is pleased to welcome the President of Costa Rica, Luis Guillermo Solís—whose country currently holds the presidency pro tempore of the Central American Integration System (SICA)—for a wide-ranging open discussion on these and other topics.
