World Cup Tech Push: FIFA just unveiled its 11-member Technical Study Group for the 2026 World Cup, led by Pascal Zuberbühler and guided by Arsène Wenger, with Costa Rica’s Paulo Wanchope among the panelists—set to analyze all 104 matches and help pick major individual awards. Costa Rica in the Spotlight: The same week also brings local momentum beyond football: San José’s free Art City Tour returns May 14 with “Chepe bajo la lluvia,” and Costa Rica hosts the 2026 Latin American Karting Championship May 15–17 at P1 Speedway. Arts & Community: In theater, Rhizomatic Rivers Productions brings “I.C.E. Baby: Inside Colfax East” (May 13–15) to Void Studios, built from years of community work with immigrant youth. Regional Cultural Links: India’s minister met Honduras officials to expand cooperation in arts, yoga, wellness, cinema, and cultural exchanges. Media Noise: Elsewhere, the week’s biggest online culture story keeps circling back to Costa Rica—Hulu’s “The Cult of NatureBoy” has viewers saying the docuseries makes the Costa Rica community look even worse than they expected.
