Overview

Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) have been areas of continued engagement for CPPF. CPPF has worked on Colombia and the Andean region for almost two decades, with Central America—specifically the Northern Triangle—a more recent priority. To ensure inclusive participation from the region, CPPF’s LAC programming is conducted primarily in Spanish with written reports produced both in Spanish and English. CPPF has also devoted time to working on Cuba and the English-Speaking Caribbean. CPPF works alongside the UN on cross-cutting challenges facing the region today, including the war on drugs, food insecurity, and political corruption.
