Andrea Bolaños, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights, will speak with renowned Honduran journalist Jennifer Ávila about what she has seen repeat in several countries across the region: journalists and Indigenous leaders accused in court, pushed into exile, or silenced.

For the Rapporteur, protecting these individuals does not start with more security, but rather with first listening to the communities at risk. The conversation will explore how Central America can adapt protection to this moment, and what role international cooperation must play.
