The Organization of American States (OAS) is currently holding its Fifth Model of the Permanent Council for OAS Interns (5th MOAS/PC), the purpose of which is to familiarize interns from throughout the Hemisphere working at the Organization with the work of the political bodies of the OAS, and specifically with the Permanent Council.
The opening of the Fifth Model featured Ms. Irene Klinger, Director of the Department of International Affairs of the OAS, who welcomed the interns, followed by an address by Ambassador Luis Alfonso Hoyos Aristizabal, President of the Permanent Council and Permanent Representative of Colombia to the OAS, as well as the Director of the Department of Human Resources, Rosa María Barreiro.
Each MOAS for interns is organized around a core event, theme or activity taking place in the Hemisphere or in the inter-American system. Currently, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights is holding its 137th Period of Sessions and is also celebrating the 50th anniversary of its creation. Therefore, the interns participating in the 5th MOAS/PC will debate the topics of “Corporate Social Responsibility and Human Rights of Indigenous and Tribal Communities,” and “Common Approaches towards Protecting the Human Rights of Migrants in the Americas.”
At the end of this MOAS/PC, if the interns had applied and practiced the principles of negotiation, compromise and diplomacy, they will have approved, by consensus, one joint resolution for each of the above topics.
In addition to the Models for OAS interns, the MOAS Program holds Models for university and for high school students. Registration is open to all universities in the Hemisphere for the Washington MOAS (March 30-April 3, 2010) and for the 28th MOAS in Lima, Peru (May 12-15, 2010). Also, the next MOAS for high schools will be held at OAS Headquarters in Washington, D.C., from December 2 to 5, 2009.
