We were proud to be an international partner at the #EuroLat in Mexico City this week.

Our experts addressed a range of priorities for #LatinAmerica and #Caribbean, including economic growth, trade and integration, citizen security, resilience, and stronger interregional cooperation.

We welcome the opportunity to engage with parliamentary leaders, governments, civil society, and international partners to advance development in the region we serve – and to be a bridge to the world!

Delighted to host Chairman @RepFrenchHill, @Rep_Davidson, and Finance Ministers from across Latin America and the Caribbean to discuss the relationship between the US and the region, investment opportunities in the region and enhancing the role of private sector in development. Now more than ever #LAC can be a source of solutions to our common challenges. @the_IDB is proud to be a bridge between LAC and the US and build partnerships that turn potential into reality. A more prosperous Latin America and the Caribbean means a more secure and prosperous hemisphere—for all.

Encantado de recibir al congresista @RepFrenchHill, presidente del comité de finanzas, a @Rep_Davidson y a ministros de finanzas de toda América Latina y el Caribe para dialogar sobre la relación entre Estados Unidos y la región, las oportunidades de inversión y el fortalecimiento del rol del sector privado en el desarrollo. Hoy más que nunca, #LAC puede ser una fuente de soluciones a nuestros desafíos comunes. El BID se enorgullece de ser un puente entre LAC y EE. UU., y de construir alianzas que conviertan el potencial en realidad. Una América Latina y el Caribe más próspera significa un hemisferio más seguro y próspero para todos.

Great first session with @the_IDB Governors. We heard strong backing for continued implementation of IDBImpact+. Our Governors also expressed support for work on areas of common interest to all our members such as—efficiency in the IDB’s work, development through the private sector, resilience to natural disasters and security in all its dimensions. Momentum on @BID_Invest capitalization and @IDB_Lab replenishment process is strong. Several countries have already subscribed shares or are making significant progress in the implementation process ahead of schedule. Thank you for your support!

Proud of my daughter for exploring how teenagers today are more socially, politically aware and proactively taking action, while recognizing the toll it can potentially take on their mental health. https://t.co/h1y1VDzrjE

Proud of my daughter Ximena for publishing her first feature article. She focused on @chefjoseandres Spanish Diner, which feeds our neighborhood and world hunger! From tortilla español to extending a humanitarian lifeline, kudos @WCKitchen,

Honored to present (and represent) at the UN General Assembly on discussions about ways to mobilize private capital toward sustainable development goals, including in complex settings.

[Larry Sacks @ljsacks73]

Now is the time to mobilize private capital to protect the aggrieved, lift the vulnerable, bolster economies, defend the sanctity of peace and to generally bring development impact!

Honored to speak at the Finance in Common Summit on ways to mobilize private capital toward sustainable development goals. And no better place to do so than in (la fantastica) Cartagena! The challenges are real and the moment is now. Thanks for the warm welcome home, Colombia.

🤝⚙️🚀 "Without private sector engagement it is inconceivable to achieve the #SDGs." @ljsacks73, Director of Development at @DFCgov, explains "we are at an urgent time to get things done. We need commitment, we need to identify and reduce bottlenecks, and we need to work more agile and bet on projects that make sense with #SDG compliance."

He also indicated that for the initiatives to be successfully accomplished "it is essential to consult communities, ethnic groups and indigenous population."
