Executive Secretariat for Integral Development (SEDI)
The PSS is the additional
protocol to the American Convention on Human Rights to ensure Economic
Social and Cultural Rights (ESCR). It was adopted in 1988 and entered
into force in 1999. The
Protocol
of San Salvador (PSS) has been signed by 19 states and ratified by
16: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El
Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay,
Peru, Suriname and Uruguay.
According to article 19, the PSS
includes a follow-up mechanism: a system of periodic reports through
which the State Parties communicate the progressive measures they have
taken to ensure due respect for the rights under the PSS.
The main objective of the
Technical Secretariat within the DIS is to provide support to the
Working Group (WG) for the analysis of the national reports under the
PSS, and to promote economic, social and cultural rights in the region.
Objectives:
• Provide fundamental technical
secretariat services to the Working Group in its work. • Promote the
economic, social and cultural rights (ESCR) as part of the equity
agenda.
• Encourage the development of
progress indicators as useful tools for the design and evaluation of
public policy.
• Organize training activities
regarding the progress indicators for the measurements of rights
foreseen in the PSS.
