UNESCO Strategy for Latin America and the Caribbean
UNESCO's regional strategies
|
As a whole the countries of the Latin America and Caribbean region have confirmed the relevance of the twelve strategic objectives of the Medium-Term Strategy of the Organization for 2002-2007 in the fields of education, science, culture, communication and information, and those related to the two cross-cutting themes (eradication of poverty, especially extreme poverty and the contribution of information and communication technologies to the development of education, science and culture and the construction of a knowledge society).
However, the diversity of situations in the region should be borne in mind from the start and, consequently, a priority should be given to subregional strategies with a view to ensuring enhanced planning at the sub-regional level based on the already identified needs of the different countries, on the already existing cooperation and on the Organization’s expertise at regional, sub-regional, cluster and national levels.
The Medium-Term Strategy (2002 - 2007) for the Latin America and Caribbean Region, is the result of discussions held during the Director-General's Consultation of the National Commissions for UNESCO of the Latin America and the Caribbean region (Montevideo, Uruguay, 15-18 July 2002).
