Join us tomorrow! 🇭🇳 On November 30, Hondurans will head to the polls to choose a new President, Congress, and municipal authorities. But the electoral climate is already tense, and the risk of another crisis is high as forces inside and outside Honduras attempt to undermine democracy. Almost four years after the fall of the U.S.-backed narcodictatorship, conservative factions in Honduras, echoed by allies in the U.S. Congress, are shaping the narrative. Honduran social movements and international allies remain deeply skeptical of Washington’s promises not to intervene. Join Global Exchange, CESPAD, and the Honduras Solidarity Network (HSN) for a webinar that takes a close-up look at the 2025 elections, the challenges ahead, and the struggle to defend democracy. 📅 Sept 9 | 5:30pm PT Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_e01fzVOAT_GHb-J6UOpu6A (fb)
