Latin American economies Peru, Chile, Colombia, Brazil, and Mexico as the commodities boom cycle fades in 2013-2015
05/06/2010
Commodities exports make up about one fifth of output in Peru and Chile. Slowdown in growth in China will affect exports of copper and other metals. Brazil's growth faces additional hurdles with low investment rates, poor infrastructure and other problems. This in turn affects companies ranging from beer producers to other companies depending on sales in the region.

Rapidly changing fertility rates and demographics in Brazil and the rest of Latin America
01/20/2010
Brazil's fertility rate has dropped from 6.1 children per woman in 1960 to less than 1.9 in 2010. The U.S. is at 2.0, which is enough to keep the population stable. The change is visible throughout Latin America, from Chile and Mexico to Ecuador. The fertility rate in Latin America has dropped from about 6 children per woman in 1960 to 2.3 in 2010. Causes given by experts are the migration to urban areas, the changes in lifestyles, the influence of television and soap operas showing smaller affluent families, better health care, education and career choices for women. What is exceptional about Brazil is that this is happening in poor and affluent areas alike, in rural and urban areas alike.

World Trade Organization (WTO) president Brazilian Roberto Azevedo
05/07/2013
Azevedo, Brazil's ambassador to the WTO since 2008, succeeds Pascal Lamy of France as the new head of the WTO in 2013. Brazil is not seen as the best proponent of free trade as it protects its domestic industry and depends less on free trade than countries like Mexico.

Tide Reverses in Latin America
Wall Street Journal 09/08/2013
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
