The international social agenda: Presidential summits and world social forums

Two important meetings of presidents have been held in Latin America: the Eleventh Ibero–American Summit of Heads of State and Government, and the Sixteenth Presidential Summit of the Rio Group. At both these meetings the Heads of State and Government of the region reaffirmed their commitment to work for the strengthening of peace, development, protection of the environment and human rights. More specifically, the Ibero–American Summit focused on the rights of the child, while the Rio Summit concentrated more on policies aimed at the family.
