Description

When elected to the presidency of Mexico in 2000, Vicente Fox broke the reign that the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party had held on the State for seven decades. Described as a charismatic reformer, President Fox is credited with playing a vital role in Mexico’s democratization and strengthening the country’s economy. During his tenure, he succeeded in controlling inflation and interest rates, and in achieving the lowest unemployment rate in all of Latin America. Join us for an evening with President Fox as he discusses the challenges faced by Mexico and the greater hemisphere.

Richard & Judith Guggenhime Speakers

As part of an ongoing effort to provide the Bay Area with more access to information on global issues, the World Affairs Council of Northern California launched the Richard and Judith Guggenhime Speaker Programs in 2006. This is made possible through a generous grant from the Stanley S. Langendorf Foundation in the name of Richard and Judith Guggenhime, and brings world-renowned experts to the Bay Area. Interviews take place in a relaxed, conversation-style setting for unusual, unscripted remarks and integrates questions from the live audience during the evening.
