The US-Mexico Foundation and the Mexico Institute of the Woodrow Wilson Center held an Ambassadors Retreat in Tequila, Jalisco from December 2 to 5, 2021. In this second retreat in which the former ambassadors of the United States in Mexico, and of Mexico in the United States were summoned to discuss the present and the future of the bilateral relationship, we were accompanied by 13 former Ambassadors, the 2 current Ambassadors, Business Leaders and University Representatives from both countries.

Over the course of 4 days, the former Ambassadors discussed the most significant issues in the bilateral relationship, including: economy, workforce development, security, soft power and migration; with the expectation that the ideas raised will strengthen the bilateral relationship.

The main conclusions of the discussion will be published in a report with recommendations for the binational relationship.

The US-Mexico Foundation and the Wilson Center thank our sponsors and partners for their generous support of this initiative.
