Santiago Metropolitan Region to Lead International Urban Security Network from Late 2026

The Metropolitan Region of Santiago will preside over the International Urban Security Network (RISU) starting late 2026, as announced at the III RISU meeting held during SeguridadExpo 2026. The event gathered delegations from Panama, Camboriú, Guayaquil, San Juan de Puerto Rico, and Bogotá, indicating regional cooperation on urban security. This leadership role may enhance Chile's influence in urban security policy across Latin America, though its practical impact remains to be seen.
