By: OAS, Press Release

    May 12, 2015  --  The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, today participated in an interagency meeting to discuss the creation of the Inter-American System of Education, which aimed to "move forward in achieving the commitments and the development of this important initiative."

     

    During the meeting, Secretary General Insulza recalled that in the framework of the Eighth Meeting of Ministers of Education of the Americas, held in February, participants approved the creation of the Inter-American Education Agenda, which will be built through working groups led by ministers of education. He also mentioned that, at the Seventh Summit of the Americas, held in Panama in April, "we signed a Letter of Intent in which we expressed our willingness to create a working group to evaluate different alternatives and strategies for the creation of an Inter-American System of Education."

    In this context, the leader of the hemispheric institution urged participants "to help define a program to be articulated with the Inter-American Education Agenda currently under construction, and to present the initiatives that each entity will undertake and produce a report that will enable us to advance with this specific regional effort in the field of education."

    The meeting was also attended by the Permanent Representative of Colombia to the OAS, Ambassador Andres Gonzalez; the Corporate Vice President of Social and Environmental Development of the Development Bank of Latin America (CAF), José Carrera; the World Bank Vice President for Latin America and the Caribbean, Jorge Familiar; the Director of the Washington Office of the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), Inés Bustillo; the Director of the Education Division of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), Emiliana Vega, and the Senior Education Specialist from the OAS, Abigail Castro de Perez.
