The year ahead is a difficult one for Latin America as the region tries to reverse its democratic and economic backsliding. A new generation of leaders is on its way to power.

2022 has a critical electoral calendar in Latin America, as elections loom ahead in Brazil, Colombia, and Costa Rica. In Chile’s recent presidential elections, the country voted for a 35-year old former student protestor, Gabriel Boric, who promises transparency and new economic hope. In recent years, the region is again in a deep decline after considerable progress in the early 2000s; and the pandemic has only exacerbated social rifts and inequality. Can younger leaders bring solutions?

Altamar hosts Peter Schechter and Muni Jensen are joined by Juan Gabriel Valdés, Chile’s former Foreign Minister and a true expert on his country and Latin America as a whole. Altamar’s ‘Téa’s Take’ by Téa Ivanovic delves into the growing strength of progressive youth in Latin American politics.
