Latin American and Caribbean Ministers of Social Development will participate in the Regional Conference on Social Development in Latin America and the Caribbean, convened by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), the Government of Peru and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) this week in Lima.
The authorities will discuss new poverty and inequality reduction policies, in view of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by world leaders in New York on 25 September.
The Conference was created in 2014 during the last session of ECLAC held in the Peruvian capital and is the result of a strategic alliance with UNDP, giving continuity to seven consecutive years of the Ministerial Forum for Development in the region.
