International Law: Dialogues between Latin America and the United States

Latin America has long been a key region in shaping debates and practices within international law, from the early articulation of doctrines of sovereignty and non-intervention to contemporary struggles around human rights, business, and environmental protection. Today, Latin America continues to offer rich perspectives on pressing issues that intersect with investment law, business and human rights, and international legal cooperation. This conference brings together distinguished jurists and scholars from Latin American and US institutions to explore shared challenges and innovative responses in international and comparative law. Through conversations on freedom of expression, business and human rights, gender equality, and democratic resilience, the event seeks to foster a hemispheric dialogue that highlights Latin America’s significant contributions to global debates on human rights and governance.
