On January 1, 2003, Luis Inacio "Lula" da Silva of Brazil's Workers Party assumed the presidency. Contrary to widespread expectations, President Lula has not gone down the populist path as financial experts had feared before his election. Instead, he has embarked on economic policies supported by the IMF and has launched an important agenda of structural reform.
Please join the panelists at this event to take stock of Lula's political and economic achievements in his first year in office and to examine Brazil’s prospects in the year ahead.
