A World in Crisis as Seen From Latin America

This event has a double purpose. First, to present and discuss major findings of a survey entitled "European Union - Latin America: Perspectives, Agendas and Expectations". This survey was organized by Latinobarómetro in the second half of 2021 and polled a representative sample from ten Latin American countries: Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, Uruguay and Venezuela. The survey design sought to fill in the gaps in information about local attitudes towards global issues. Its driving motivation has been to evaluate the region's capacity to react, how people in Latin America think about the turbulent international situation, and their perceptions of the type of action, leadership, and examples being set by the central actors of the global system.

Our second aim is to link this evaluation with a reflection on the dilemmas shared by Latin America, Europe, and the United States in face of the ongoing uncertainties and threats that currently dominate global affairs. While this survey has been conceived and designed in the midst of major global transformations, its final results are being publicly released in a context of particular dramatic geopolitical events with myriad impacts on the societies and governments of the North and the South. While such impacts are far from homogeneous, they do raise common challenges that could lead to innovative approaches and eventually to collaborative initiatives in world politics and economics.
