According to dailycal.org, Democrats at Cal Berkeley hosted 17 Latin American political delegates on monday afternoon to share strategies for engaging voters as part of a U.S State Deepartment-sponsored program. The International Visitor Leadership Program provides non-American political figures with information about American society and politics. The delegation met in California to specifically address accountability and transparency in the government. The Latin American delegation consisted of representatives, politicians, journalists, activists, and attorneys from The Dominican Republic, Honduras, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Paraguay, and Ecuador. The international delegates asked the students about their strategies to encourage voter engagement. The students then asked the delegates about the cost of public education and the current presidential election. Towards the end of the debate, the topic shifted to education once more where Ricardo Corona Real, general attorney for a Mexican think tank, recommended that students keep accountability as their "core issue" with political elections.
