As we get closer to the elections that are going to be taking place in Guatemala in September, we'll be taking a look at the information out there about the range of different candidates standing.


Here Nineth Montenegro (Encuentro Por Guatemala) explains her beliefs and formative experiences in an interview on Guatevision. She talks about her political partnership with Rigoberta Menchu (Winaq) and challenge for women in Guatemala as they stand together for elected office with Encuentro Por Guatemala.
