Message from the OAS Secretary General
A Message from the Director of the Department of International Affairs:
The
Organization of American States (OAS) is located in the heart of Washington
D.C. Its mission is to promote and strengthen democracy, human rights, peace
and security and integral development for the peoples of the Western
Hemisphere.
Through the OAS Tour & Briefing Program, our visitors can see firsthand one of
the most emblematic and magnificent buildings in the nation’s capital. After
experiencing a tour of this more than 100-year-old building, which reflects
the richness of the cultures and history of the Americas, visits can be
complemented by technical briefings provided by Specialists in different areas
of expertise.
I invite you to explore the Tour & Briefing Program website and witness
how the House of the Americas is committed to improving the lives of the
peoples of the region.
