------------------------------------------------------------

Hear directly from international human rights experts and Honduran social movement leaders about what’s at stake

As the U.S. government is again ramping up political and military pressures, and illegal economic sanctions against governments in Latin America not following the economic and political dictates of Washington and global corporations, investors and banks, Honduras is not escaping this aggressive interventionism.

Honduras is facing an intense pre-electoral crisis that is deepening as election day approaches. The politically charged moment is hard to monitor, even for the most astute, regardless of whether you are following the situation closely or not. Concerns about the integrity of the electoral process are surfacing almost daily from every sector of Honduran society, as well as from international entities like the OAS and officials in the U.S. government.

So, how do we understand the complexities of the situation less than 2 weeks from Honduran election day (November 30, 2025)? What are some of the key takeaways of the pre-electoral crisis that can ground our understanding of the national situation?

Participants
* Gustavo Irías, Executive Director of the Center for Democracy Studies (CESPAD), a Global Exchange partner leading a 150-person national and international electoral observation mission. Gustavo will discuss the pre-electoral crisis and share CESPAD’s work documenting and clarifying what is happening on the ground.
* Wendy Cruz, from the campesino organization Via Campesina, will share how she, as an organizer, understands the unfolding electoral crisis from a non-partisan, social-movement perspective.
* Karen Spring, Honduras-based Coordinator of the Honduras Solidarity Network (HSN). Karen has lived and worked in Honduras for over 15 years. Karen will help translate the stakes of this pre-electoral crisis in Honduras for an international audience seeking to understand why what happens in Honduras matters for the entire region — and how it shapes relations with other countries, particularly the United States.

Change media sources

Rights Action urges everyone to diversify their news sources, as a necessary antidote to the oftentimes harmful, misleading reporting coming from much of the government and corporate media in the U.S., the E.U. and Canada. We recommend Democracy Now ([link removed]) , The Real News ([link removed]) , Al Jazeera News ([link removed]) (for coverage of Genocide in Palestine), The Gray Zone ([link removed]) , The Orinoco Tribune ([link removed]) , …
