Latin America's Burning Challenge

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit Latin America especially hard, making it even more difficult for the region to pursue rapid decarbonization and climate resilience. But if policymakers can marry climate policies with a broader social agenda, they can start to turn potential costs into long-term benefits.

WASHINGTON, DC – “We are entering times of rebellion and change. There are those who believe that destiny rests on the knees of the gods; but the truth is that it confronts the conscience of man with a burning challenge.” The Uruguayan novelist Eduardo Galeano’s words are as relevant to Latin America today as they were when he wrote them 50 years ago.
