The year 2008 has been named as the “Year of the World Summits in Peru” because of the significance for Peru as host country of two important summits that will gather 80 heads of state and government from the world’s leadings economies.

Next May 2008, 60 heads of state and government of Europe and Latin America will attend the V European Union (EU) - Latin-American and Caribbean (LAC) Summit.

Afterwards, in November, the 21 leaders of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Member Economies will arrive in Lima to take part in the XVI APEC Summit.
