OAS and Mexico Sign Letter of Understanding for CIM Assembly
September 7, 2010
The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, and the Permanent Representative of Mexico to the Organization, Ambassador Gustavo Albin Santos, today signed a Letter of Understanding involving the logistical support that the hemispheric organization is to provide for the 35th General Assembly of Delegates of the Inter-American Commission of Women (CIM), to be held November 3 to 5, 2010, in Mexico City.
During the signing ceremony, the Secretary General said the CIM “is the hemisphere’s political forum for everything that relates to half of the citizens in our continent,” referring to the numerical proportion of women in the population.
He also emphasized that Mexico this year “celebrates the Bicentennial of its Independence, the One Hundredth Anniversary of its Revolution, and also has decided to host the Assembly of Delegates of the CIM.” “I am sure Mexico will know how to hold this Assembly with the same competence it has shown for so many of our Organization’s events,” Insulza remarked.
For his part, the Mexican diplomat expressed satisfaction on behalf of his Government “for the opportunity to host the 35th Assembly of Delegates of the CIM during the Inter-American Year of Women, in which the CIM is getting ready to face the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century.” “We are very hopeful and confident that we will obtain a positive outcome to face the political, social and economic conditions of women in our continent,” Ambassador Albin said.
The CIM Delegates Assembly has as main topics “political participation, democracy and governance,” as well as “gender violence, law enforcement, justice and human rights.”
The ceremony took place today in the private office of Secretary General Insulza in Washington D.C., and was also attended by the Chair of the Permanent Council and Permanent Representative of Ecuador to the Organization, María Isabel Salvador.
