The Office of Education and Culture of the OAS invites public-sector institutions, private entities and civil society organizations to present proposals of initiatives for inclusion in the portfolio of promising experiences and programs that use the arts and communication media as means of promoting education for democratic citizenship among children and youth.
A selection of public policies, programs and initiatives will be incorporated into the portfolio, which will be disseminated by the Organization of American States as a contribution to the exchange of ideas, dissemination of information and successful practices, and horizontal cooperation among the OAS Member States.
