U.S.-Mexico Border-Regional Economy and Security

Los Angeles Foreign Press Center

Over three days, sixteen journalists from European, Asian, and Middle-Eastern media outlets met with key public and private sector organizations in the El Paso-Juarez-Las Cruces region.   Journalists covered a range of border security and defense industry topics as well as news on regional development, trade, health sciences, aerospace, natural resources, and Americana.   The Los Angeles Foreign Press Center reporting tour to El Paso, Texas—the nexus of a two-state, bi-national economy —provided international media the opportunity to report on America outside-the-beltway.
