READ THE MONTEVIDEO DECLARATION

IN AUGUST 2026, LEADERS FROM ACROSS THE HEMISPHERE
WILL GATHER IN MONTEVIDEO FOR THE THIRD ANNUAL PANAMERICAN CONGRESS.

The Panamerican Congress was founded in Bogotá, Colombia, where President Gustavo Petro convened eight delegations from across North, Central, and South America and the Caribbean to forge a common vision for the future of the hemisphere.

The following August, President Claudia Sheinbaum welcomed the Congress to Mexico City, where delegations from 12 countries deliberated the themes of equality, prosperity, solidarity and sovereignty — and concluded with a call for the third Congress in Montevideo, Uruguay.

Since then, the mandate for Montevideo has only grown as hemispheric challenges mount: from peace and diplomacy to technology and innovation, the time has come to stand up to old doctrines and renew the spirit of panamerican cooperation.

That is why presidents, ministers, parliamentarians, scholars, activists, and special guests will come together in Uruguay, where President Yamandú Orsi and the Frente Amplio are championing a model of honest and inclusive governance under the banner of “liberty, equality, and fraternity.”

The mandate for Montevideo continued to grow as hemispheric challenges intensified: from peace and democracy to technology and innovation, the Panamerican Congress convened to challenge outdated doctrines and renew the spirit of cooperation among the countries of the Americas.

At the 2026 Panamerican Congress, participants called for the renewal of the democracies of the Americas to serve the needs of their peoples and for the sovereign equality of nations in the face of all forms of external coercion. At the close of the gathering, they convened the Fourth Panamerican Congress in Brazil in August 2027, continuing, 200 years later, the work that Bolívar began in Panama.

OVER THE COURSE OF THREE DAYS IN URUGUAY’S LEGISLATIVE PALACE, DELEGATES WILL EXCHANGED BEST PRACTICES, DELIBERATED POLICY PROPOSALS,
AND DEVELOPED A SHARED AGENDA TO STRENGTHEN SOLIDARITY BETWEEN PEOPLES AND SOVEREIGNTY AMONG NATIONS.
