Warsaw Latin Convention (WLC) is an initiative of students and lecturers created at the Faculty of Law and Administration of the University of Warsaw. The aim of the project is to promote and develop legal, economic and academic relations between institutions, entrepreneurs and law firms in Poland and Latin America. The basis for building these relations are primarily young people, students – future specialists, lawyers, entrepreneurs, who, thanks to the knowledge and experience gained within the project, will contribute to the development of the current cooperation.Within the project, we organize academic conferences and workshops combining economic and legal elements.The main focus of the project is organizing short-term exchange program between students from Latin American and Polish universities. During the exchange members of WLC take part in the various workshops and meetings devoted to the Polish and Latin American countries economic and legal systems with experts in the fields of law and economics. We are convinced that academic relations are powerful incentive for the future development of political and economic relations between states, since they create an opportunity to gain knowledge about a future partner. What in turn, is an impulse for building social and commercial contacts between their citizens. Seeing the potential of Latin American countries, both in terms of the opportunity of allocation of prospective investments in the region as well as the export of Polish products, we want to build awareness of the enormous possibilities that this region creates. Poland, on the other hand, as a transit state and one of the largest and fast-growing economies in Europe is a very attractive trading partner.We also believe that Warsaw Latin Convention will become, in the future, the leading platform for building and strengthening the current cooperation between partners from Poland and Latin America, both institutional, scientific and economic.
