Education
The Ministers of Education meet periodically to discuss education in the
political agenda, exchange experiences, and review the progress of the mandates
from the Summits of the
Americas. The Ministers develop lines of action to respond to the Summit
mandates. In addition to Ministerial meetings, the Inter-American Committee on
Education meets to follow-up on the implementation of the lines of action
established by the Ministers.
Topics of Ministerial meetings include: the state of education in the
Hemisphere; education for a democratic citizenry; early childhood education;
teacher training and education; and, the role of education in socio-cultural,
political and economic development.
The Technical Secretariat that supports both the Meetings of Ministers of
Education and the Inter-American Committee on Education is the
Department of Human Development and
Education.
