PRESENTATION

The challenges Latin America and the Caribbean region is facing, the need to reconcile its economic and social growth Agendas as well as the goals set by the formulation of a Decent Work Hemispheric Agenda based on the ILO strategic objectives, have been among others, the most outstanding factors in this context where ILO/Cinterfor member institutions comprise their new strategic plan.

Certainly, nowadays, vocational training keeps and exhibits a most defined role in national agendas, its connection with subjects such as social inclusion, the access to decent works, professional and personal realization, national productivity and competitivity, make clear the necessity to deepen in the articulation and cooperation efforts that ILO/Cinterfor has always facilitated.

The Strategic Plan is presented as a document arising from a wide analysis and consultation process and as well as an instrument of change, dynamic and affirmative that allows all institutions associated to the ILO/Cinterfor network and all ILO tripartite mandates a deeper identification with their objectives and, to other areas of the Organization, a more articulated and integrated job.

So the Centre assumes explicitly from now on, a vocational training knowledge development role and articulates its action in ten priority areas. The strategic plan of ILO/Cinterfor contained in this document, presents a brief revision of the regional situation related to training, raises the Centre’s perspective course, exposes its mission and vision and raises the implementation strategic and its action plan for the next short and medium-term period.
