At its thirty-third session in 2010, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) asserted that equality is a core value of the development pursued by the region. It provides both the framework of standards and the foundation for social covenants that generate more opportunities for those who have the least. ECLAC made it clear that equality means more than equal opportunities: it means actually narrowing gaps (Bárcena, 2010).
