Brazil’s new role to be examined

The next 2015 Great Decision discussion session on “Brazil’s Metamorphosis,” will be presented by Chip Lile from 11:45 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. Tuesday at Durango Public Library, 1900 East Third Ave.

Great Decisions, an international affairs discussion group, is sponsored by the League of Women Voters and Durango Public Library. Attendees are welcome to bring a lunch. After economic troubles in the 1990s, Brazil has risen to new global prominence – it’s drawing in more investment, working on global issues ranging from climate change to peacekeeping and hosting the 2016 Olympics. But some of Brazil’s problems – deep divisions over how to tackle serious income inequality, weak civic institutions and poor regional leadership – have held it back.
