The Wilson Center joins the nation in celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month and takes this opportunity to renew our dedication to honoring the rich history, diverse cultures, and significant contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities in the United States and around the world. This is a time to reflect on the unique blend of traditions, languages, and innovations that have profoundly shaped our society, and to recognize the pivotal role that Hispanic individuals and communities have played in shaping our nation's identity.

From public service to academia, the arts to entrepreneurship, the impact of Hispanic Americans can be seen across every sector of society. Their contributions have enriched the social, economic, and cultural fabric of the US.

The Wilson Center, committed to fostering dialogue and collaboration across regions and disciplines, takes this moment as an opportunity to celebrate the diversity that Hispanic heritage brings to the global conversation.

At the Wilson Center, we are honored to work alongside distinguished Hispanic scholars, leaders, and experts who contribute invaluable insights to critical global issues. Their voices play a vital role in informing policy, promoting understanding, and advancing solutions to today’s most pressing challenges, from economic development to diplomacy, governance, and security.
