OAS and UNFPA to Cooperate in the Implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals in the Americas
October 13, 2016
The Organization of American States (OAS) and the United Nations Population Fund, through the Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean (LACRO), will join efforts to support the countries of the Americas in the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The OAS General Secretary, Luis Almagro, and UNFPA’S Regional Director for Latin America and the Caribbean, Esteban Caballero, signed a statement that sets forth the areas in which the two institutions will work together, mainly in topics related to:
- Maternal health
-Universal access to quality health services, and
-The improvement of the well-being of women, children, and adolescents in the Americas with an equity perspective.
“This is about widening the range of opportunities for progress for all, and to do this we must focus on priority populations” said the OAS Secretary General, Luis Almagro, who emphasized that “access to quality health services and the improvement of the well-being of women, children, and adolescents is critical to building a future with greater equity in the region where rights will go from being something that exists on paper to become a daily reality.”
For his part, the LACRO Regional Director, Esteban Caballero, highlighted that "preventable maternal deaths that still take place in the region are the clearest example of the unresolved agenda that is being transferred from the Millennium Development Goals to the Sustainable Development Goals.”
