Coronavirus in Latin America: Policy Effects on Human Rights in Northern Triangle

Online

Advanced registration required. 

The third webinar in our series Coronavirus in Latin America. We explore the impact COVID-19 has had on human rights in Central America. With the spread of the virus throughout Central America, where food sovereignty and a decimated healthcare system are already a problem, how are governments, community groups and hospitals responding to the pandemic? Join us for an informal conversation with Noah Bullock. Executive Director and Osvaldo Lapuente  Country Director of Cristosal, a human rights organization working in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras with these and many other issues. The panel will be moderated by Stone Center for Latin American Studies PhD candidate, José Nico Cabrera Schneider.

Cristosal Founded in 2000 as a partnership between Anglican churches in El Salvador and the United States, Cristosal has since 2010 expanded its reach and reputation as one of the leading human rights organizations in the Northern Triangle of Central America.  In 2017, Cristosal was selected by USAID to implement a regional project focused on forced migration which expanded Cristosal's organizational reach into Guatemala and Honduras.
