CENTER FOR DEMOCRACY AND DEVELOPMENT IN THE AMERICAS INC

Americas 100 (branded as iq latino) is: 1) a leadership forum and collaborative research initiative engaged in the empowering, educating and integrating a network of hispanic leaders and influencers to promote innovation and best practices in social entrepreneurship and public policy; 2) a platform to develop engagements and partnerships among latino leaders in the united states, spain and latin america to address the most pressing issues in the hemisphere known as "latinos in foreing policy". During the 2024 the initiative worked with fellows to produce content and continued developing the iq latino community; promoted events to recruit and prepare fellows; and produced digital campaigns to advance the latino agenda, social entrepreneurship and policy innovation. During 2024 we continued with our jose nucete sardi scholarship program with the sorensen institute at the university of virginia. In 2024 we sponsored and participated in latinos in foreign policy events with the congressional hispanic caucus institute, the u.s. - spain council, and other events with international and u.s. Latino leaders.
