9. 3000 Voices From Latin America by a group of 4050 selected and ‘notorious’ latin americans, and the if we considerthat many sign in representation of their organizations or institutions http://www.fronesis.org/otros/3000voices.htm

3000 Voices from Latin America: The “Latin American Statement for Education for All” Rosa-María Torres Since April 2000 and until the end of 2001, nearly three thousand people have signed the “Latin American Statement for Education for All”, a six-page document that was presented at, and prepared on the occasion of, the World Education Forum (Dakar, 26-28 April, 2000). Several elements make this an innovative, valuable and promising experience: The initiative : This is an endogenous initiative, born from Latin American concerns, perceptions and needs, drafted, organized and mobilized by Latin Americans although support from other regions has been stimulated and welcome. The Statement was drafted and initially circulated in Spanish, and later translated into Portuguese (for internal dissemination in Brazil) and into English (for wider international dissemination). The process has been conducted on a voluntary basis, without any financial support. All the following – intellectual ownership, professional and financial independence, use of our own communication languages – are important claims in a region that has started to reject the homogeneous education reform “recipe” and to show the need to recuperate our own rich educational tradition and our own capacities to think, decide and solve our own problems. The signers The content : Signers agree to sign a document that is both critical and propositional. It reflects a growing dissatisfaction in the region not only with the state of the art of education systems but of education reform and of international co-operation for this purpose. Despite perennial school reform efforts, accentuated over the 1990s in the framework of growing technical and financial presence from international agencies – and from the banks, in particular—the expected improved quality and equity in education are not tangible.

13. History and extensive Fraternity to address the needs of latin americans in universities Thusboth organizations complemented each other and the arduous work towards http://www.columbia.edu/cu/fia/History/

Fraternal History The roots of Phi Iota Alpha were implanted at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), Troy, NY in 1898. A group of Latin American students organized the Union Hispano Americana as a cultural and intellectual secret society based on the ideology of Pan-Americanism. The immediate goals of the UHA were to provide a cultural environment for students of Latin America and Spain. The UHA was the first association of Latin American students ever founded in the United States. The ideals and operations of the UHA expanded to several colleges and universities in the United States. However, due to the secrecy imposed upon its members, not many records were kept. The expansion and growth of the UHA was based on compromise and the ultimate need of similar organizations to unify and become more powerful. In the northeastern part of the United States, a group of Latin American students decided to organize a cultural and intellectual fraternity, consequently, Pi Delta Phi fraternity was founded at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1916. Shortly after its foundation, Pi Delta Phi initiated a search to expand to other colleges and universities when they realized the existence of other similar organizations. Pi Delta Phi also initiated a search throughout other American universities for other fraternities with similar goals. First, Pi Delta Phi established communication with Phi Lambda Alpha Fraternity, which had been recently founded in 1919 at the University of Southern California, Berkeley. After some communication, these two organizations realized the existence of the strong non-Greek letter secret society of Union Hispano Americana, and as a result of intensive correspondence and various interviews, the three organizations merged. In their merger agreement, the three organizations adopted the name of Phi Lambda Alpha Fraternity, with the distinctive emblem of Pi Delta Phi and the constitution, goals, and motto of the UHA. This new union was formalized in June 1921, in the city of New York.

Latin America is unfair when it comes to preserving and distributing what it has in abundance. Although it is one of the regions of the world with the greatest richness in water resources, 27% of the population, some 80 million people, lack potable water and 120 million have no sewage systems. According to researchers of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), establishing an adequate system of water management does not seem to be a matter of priority on the public agenda of the majority of nations in the region, although significant exceptions are Brazil and Mexico. ECLAC experts state that what generally characterizes the current situation of hydrological policies is the rush with which new regulations are established and the clear confusion in selecting the most appropriate ones.

16. Latin American Civil Society Non-Governmental Organizations And latin American Civil Society NonGovernmental organizations and Democracy.By Douglas Chalmers. Columbia University 2000. EDITOR S http://www.globalpolicy.org/ngos/issues/2000latamer.htm

about GPF What's New Newsletter Sitemap ... *Opinion Forum Latin American Civil Society: Non-Governmental Organizations and Democracy By Douglas Chalmers Columbia University Douglas Chalmers: We often think in looking at new democracies in Latin America that what's necessary is to set up an election and get the Congress running. In a country like Mexico, that's very important, but it's really not enough. You have to look at nonelected bodies, as they may be called, at various kinds of organizations and practices that really regulate and that organize all the other kinds of activities that are going on beyond the election itself. The elections are very brief. They only register votes. They're extremely important, but they only register the will of the people or the interests of the people at one timein the Mexican case, once every six years. Fathom: So it is not enough just to look at how the elected body is functioning? Chalmers: There are demands constantly emerging throughout the system. The Congress itself, of course, is there all the time in order to respond to these demands. And that's very important and necessary, and much better than a military regime or an authoritarian regime. But it may be 300, 400 people who are there whose skills probably relate mostly to being effective politicians in a local town or something of the sort. In order to understand how policies relating to social security, to welfare, to international trade, to all the kinds of things that a modern government must deal with, you have to see and understand how all these other demands are processed, and it requires a much richer and much greater variety of organizations and structures. And if those aren't working, then the democracy doesn't work. If the Congress is running nicely and the elections are held, but the Congress is not paying attention to all the diverse interests that are in the society, then it's not democraticeven though it may look like it is, formally.

[Print Friendly Version] Fact Sheet Bureau of Political-Military Affairs Washington, DC June 30, 2003 Regional Arms Control Initiatives in Latin America and the Caribbean Ayacucho Declaration, 1974 On December 9, 1974, the sesquicentennial celebration of the Battle of Ayacucho, the site of Simon Bolivar's final victory over Spain, eight Latin American nations stated their intention to consider arms limitations. Representatives from Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela jointly declared the need to "create conditions which permit effective limitation of armaments and put an end to their acquisition for offensive military purposes, in order to dedicate all possible resources to economic development." 1978 Initiatives Ayacucho Revisited At the urging of Venezuela, the signatories of the 1974 Ayacucho Declaration attempted to revive the Latin American arms restraint initiative. Meeting in Washington on June 22, 1978, the signatory nations of the Declaration of Ayacucho reaffirmed the importance they attributed to the principles of the Declaration and agreed to examine concrete measures for the limitation of conventional armaments in Latin America. Mexico circulated a more detailed proposal among the Latin American Foreign Ministers attending a meeting of the Organization of American States at the same time. The renewed effort under the Ayacucho Declaration to agree on regional arms limits was unsuccessful.
