Proceedings
Participants from 21 countries across Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), representatives from Spain,
the United Nations International Children’s Fund (UNICEF), and national and regional experts from
NGOs, youth organizations and trade unions participated in the workshop. The workshop, which took place
over three and a half days, was structured around 18 presentations and four small working group sessions.
The first day was dedicated to best practices for involving the public in the implementation of Article 6,
on tools for networking and information exchange promoted by the United Nations system, such as CC:iNet and
UN CC:Learn, and on reporting on the implementation of Article 6 in LAC; the second day was devoted to
awareness raising issues, in particular among children and young people; during the third day discussions
were centered on promotion of regional and international cooperation, and education and training efforts
related to climate change; in the fourth day the results of a survey on national and regional priorities in
the implementation of Article 6 and the amended New Delhi work programme in LAC were presented. In the
course of the last session the workshop participants outlined a number of recommendations, which the SBI
may wish to consider in providing further support to the implementation of the amended New Delhi work
programme in Latin America and the Caribbean.
