On 25 May, the British Embassy in Guatemala City hosted a forum on government‑to‑government partnerships to advance urban mobility solutions. More than 100 participants from government, academia, private sector, civil society and international organizations attended. The event, opened by President Bernardo Arévalo and UK Ambassador Juliana Correa, focused on supporting Guatemala’s Metroriel metro‑rail project and broader transport infrastructure. UK Delivery Team and DBT representatives presented experience from Latin American projects, citing Peru where G2G partnerships helped deliver over $10 billion in climate‑resilient infrastructure with improved efficiency and transparency. Speakers emphasized technical support, capacity building and risk mitigation to optimise public resources. After the forum, further meetings with Guatemalan officials were scheduled to explore collaboration opportunities.
