A Conversation with Henrique Capriles, Presidential Candidate for Venezuela’s Primero Justicia Party [[link removed]]
Wednesday, Aug. 9 // 2–3:00 pm (ET)
In October, Venezuela’s opposition holds its presidential primary in advance of the 2024 election. The voting will take place in immensely difficult political conditions for the beleaguered democratic opposition. For two decades, Venezuela’s ruling party has systematically dismantled the country’s democratic institutions.
Nevertheless, the opposition is committed to participating in the election, hoping the contest will provide an opportunity to reconnect with voters, mobilize support, and articulate solutions to the country’s deep economic and humanitarian challenges. Opposition presidential candidates recently participated in a debate, and the opposition is preparing to set up more than 3,000 voting centers nationwide for its October primary.
To learn more about Venezuela’s election and the changing strategies of the democratic opposition, join the Wilson Center’s Latin America Program for a conversation with Capriles. Capriles, founder of the Primero Justicia party, two-time presidential candidate, former governor of Miranda, and former mayor of Baruta, will discuss the lessons from his previous campaigns, the obstacles to running for office amid sustained repression of dissent, and his vision for Venezuela.
This conversation will take place in Spanish with English interpretation.
