The Americas Forward Forum is a flagship convening in Washington, D.C., presented by Global Americans, Foreign Policy Magazine, and The George Washington University's Graduate School of Political Management. The Forum will bring together policymakers, business leaders, and civil society from across the Western Hemisphere for three days of conversations, learning opportunities, and decisionmaking. Programming includes both public events that will increase awareness and knowledge of the most pressing issues in U.S-Latin America relations in 2026, and closed-door, invitation-only sessions to facilitate frank and honest discussions about these topics.The thematic agenda includes one day of sessions focused on the economic development and investment potential of middle-income countries in Latin America, and one day focused on Venezuela’s trajectory amid the immense changes following Nicolás Maduro's removal by the U.S.
Attendees of the Americas Forward Forum can elect to attend the full schedule of programming, or only one day. Contact Barbara Buchbinder with any questions about attendance.
