Funded by the European Commission at FGV’s Rio de Janeiro Law School (Direito Rio), the Jean Monnet Chair received, on March 8, diplomat Ana Elizabeth Villalta Vizcarra, general director of the Ministry of Foreign Relations of El Salvador and member of the Inter-American Juridical Committee.

Featured as a guest lecturer of the Compared Regionalism course, Vizcarra shared a unique outlook on the “Central American Integration System (SICA)”, contextualizing its establishment in 1991, including early integration attempts in the region decades before, listing the historical challenges overcome to reach its current structure.

Coordinated by the professor of International and European Law, Paula Wojcikiewicz Almeida, who holds FGV’s Jean Monnet Chair, the course also features FGV professors and other international guests, particularly from Free University of Brussels (Belgium), Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne (France), Universidad Andina Simón Bolívar (Ecuador), University College of London (UK), and Universidad Austral (Argentina).
