ABOUT THE EVENT
Trust in others, in government, and in businesses is lower in Latin America and the Caribbean than anywhere else in the world. This fact explains many of the problems the region faces, such as low economic growth, lack of public services and discontent with democracy. Join this event where we will present our flagship study on trust and talk about how to restore it.
