Objectives
The broad objectives of OLA are to:
- Improve academic and public understanding by observing and studying the processes of political and economic change underway in Latin America.
- Foster a public dialogue between and within the United States and Latin America about the challenges of building social democracy in a globalized world, including creating opportunities for Latin American leaders to directly express their views to audiences in the United States.
- Collaborate with Latin American institutions to further these objectives within countries across the Hemisphere by linking and mobilizing ideas and institutions.
