The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, today chaired the meeting of the Joint Summit Working Group (GTCC), whose objective is to “develop the role of inter-American and international institutions that have a permanent role in the process of the Summits of the Americas and in the entire development process of the Inter-American System.”
During the meeting, the Secretary General recalled that “it is essential to maintain a close and continuous dialogue between the GTCC and the Member States in order to identify the most important priorities for the countries and specific programs and initiatives that we can finance and implement.”
For his part, the National Summit Coordinator and President of the Summit Implementation Review Group, Ambassador Jaime Girón, said that the Sixth Summit of the Americas, which will take place in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, in April of 2012, “seems to be an excellent opportunity to send a message and to define the actions that will allow us to improve levels of development and address the difficulties facing the continent.”
The meeting, which took place at Organization headquarters in Washington, DC, also was attended by representatives from the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO), the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI), the Andean Development Corporation (CAF), the International Organization for Migration (IOM), and the World Bank.
