ONLINE EVENT: After the Vote—What’s Next for Mexico’s Judiciary?
The Brazil Program at the Inter-American Dialogue is the only country-specific policy Program in Washington dedicated to Brazil, working to deepen understanding of Brazil’s complex landscape and to strengthen ties between Brazilian and U.S. institutions across all sectors.
The Program produces independent research and events that bridge the gap between scholarship and policy, while serving as a hub for policymakers, scholars, and private sector leaders.
The Brazil Program is committed to fostering meaningful debate, generating knowledge, and shaping thought leadership around four core pillars: advancing the future of democracy through institutional strengthening and innovation; promoting an abundant and sustainable future with a focus on clean energy, resilient food systems, and Amazon preservation; addressing the opportunities and challenges of emerging technologies, including AI, privacy, and cybersecurity; and strengthening Brazil–U.S. relations and foreign policy by enhancing cooperation across government, business, academia, and civil society to expand impact and collaboration.
The Brazil Program will have a dedicated venue during COP30, hosting events, private roundtables, and networking opportunities to foster dialogue and collaboration on key environmental challenges alongside the conference.. Learn More
