Creada para ser útil en ambas capitales.
The U.S.-Venezuela Foundation is a binational, non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to fostering cooperation, dialogue and mutual understanding between the United States and Venezuela. It serves as a platform for strengthening the relationship between both countries — convening leaders from the business, civic, academic and policy communities.
To be an effective bridge for greater binational understanding and cooperation between the United States and Venezuela — contributing to economic opportunity, institutional cooperation, social development, and a stronger relationship between both nations.
Ser un puente efectivo para fomentar un mayor entendimiento y cooperación binacional entre los Estados Unidos y Venezuela, contribuyendo a generar oportunidades económicas, fortalecer la cooperación institucional, impulsar el desarrollo social y consolidar una relación más sólida entre ambas naciones.
Both texts are of equal standing. Neither is a translation of the other.
Cumplimos nuestra misión de dos maneras.
Operating programs and producing research, analysis and recommendations on issues of importance to the U.S.–Venezuela relationship.
Promoting constructive dialogue and engagement among business, civic, academic and policy leaders on key topics of binational interest.
A foundation that intends to be trusted in two capitals has to be predictable in both. These are the terms we work under, published so they can be held against us.
We convene across political lines and take no side in the domestic politics of either country.
Leadership, membership and agenda are shared between the two countries — not extended from one to the other.
Recommendations follow published analysis, with sources a reader can check.
Sessions held under the convening rule: substance published, attribution withheld.
Every substantive document exists in English and Spanish, both editions authoritative.
Programs are designed to outlast administrations, news cycles and market sentiment.
