The Global Foundation for Democracy and Development (GFDD) participated in the Guadalajara International Book Fair (FIL) 2025, reaffirming its commitment to the promotion of knowledge, cultural strengthening, and the integration of the Dominican Republic into the leading spaces of intellectual dialogue in Ibero-America.
During its presence at the FIL, GFDD advanced the selection and acquisition of new publications aimed at enriching the editorial collection of the Juan Bosch Library and held strategic meetings with publishing houses, universities, think tanks, and various Ibero-American organizations. The institution was represented by Sandra Cadavid, Director of Multimedia Global, and Miguel Sandoval, producer of Radio GFDD, who carried out the work agenda focused on expanding collaboration networks, promoting knowledge exchange, and strengthening GFDD’s international positioning.
As part of this agenda, meetings were held with executives from Channel 44 of the University of Guadalajara to explore opportunities for cooperation in content exchange, audiovisual co-production, and training programs. Progress was also made in discussions with the Ibero-American Scientific and Cultural News Program (NCC), with the aim of integrating GFDD into this initiative and incorporating content produced by Multimedia Global on the Dominican Republic and other topics of cultural and scientific relevance, which may also be broadcast in the country.
In addition, multimedia coverage of the highlights of the Fair was carried out through reports, interviews, and specialized content available on Radio GFDD’s platforms. This material captures the contributions of authors, academics, editors, and institutional representatives present at the event.
GFDD’s participation in the Guadalajara International Book Fair 2025 strengthens its institutional mission to promote cultural production, stimulate the circulation of ideas, and document the trends shaping Ibero-America’s intellectual agenda.
