The webinar discussed the future of think tanks in Latin America and the challenges and opportunities these institutions face in playing a fundamental role in public debate and in the formulation of public policies. For Carla Duarte, "looking at the future of think tanks, both the pandemic and the political circumstances in Brazil have led to a more decentralized approach in regards to policy formulation and influence."
