The SNF Agora Institute and the Hopkins Bloomberg Center invite you to an in-depth conversation with David Smolansky, SNF Agora Institute Dissident in Residence and exiled political leader, alongside president-elect Edmundo González and democratic opposition leader María Corina Machado.
Drawing from their frontline experience resisting Nicolás Maduro’s dictatorship, these leaders, who will join the in-person event virtually, will discuss ongoing efforts—both within Venezuela and in the hemisphere—to uphold the will of the overwhelming majority who voted for a democratic transition. They will also explore the broader implications of Venezuela’s struggle for democracy, including the regime’s threat to U.S. and hemispheric security.
This discussion will bridge academic and political analysis with on-the-ground realities, offering unique insights into what a free Venezuela represents globally.
Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with experts at the intersection of policy, democracy, and human rights.
