You are here: Home Where we work Latin America Who we work with in Latin America Who we work with in Latin America Project Counselling Service (PCS) is our primary operational counterpart in Latin America. PCS is a consortium of which Inter Pares is a founder and lead agency. It is composed of Inter Pares, Action by Churches Together (ACT/NL) of Holland, Norwegian Refugee Council, Danish Refugee Council, and Swiss Inter Church Aid (HEKS). Established in 1979 to promote and defend human rights, and to support the capacity of local Latin American organizations to respond to the needs of uprooted and other populations affected by political violence, PCS has over 20 years' experience working in conflict and post-conflict situations. PCS' programs emphasize the capacities and leadership of women, who, along with their children, constitute a majority of uprooted populations. PCS' cross-cutting themes are gender and human rights. PCS and Inter Pares support Latin Americans' efforts to share the lessons they've learned, to contribute to new responses to ongoing conflict, and to create more participatory and democratic governments. National Organizations Mexico DESMI Feminario is a feminist collective of women from different organizations in Chiapas that provides training for women human rights promoters and defenders, with a particular focus on the issue of violence against women. Feminario also provides legal accompaniment to cases of violence against women.

Going Better on Good Causes Maria O'Brien LatinFinance September 1, 2004 Torrential rains in the city of Chihuahua in 1990 could have condemned northern Mexico to years of hardship. Instead, it spawned one of Latin America's most remarkable philanthropic organizations: Fundacion Chihuahua Empresarial y Asociacion Civil (Fechac). Business associations banded together to lobby the state government for a 10% increase in payroll taxes to fund an assistance program for low-income communities hit by flooding. The program took nearly four years to launch, but when it did, it generated $ 5 million a year with more than 38,000 businesses contributing. By 2002, annual revenues had grown to nearly $ 8 million and the foundation boasted a full-time staff of more than 40 employees. It has evolved into one of the most professionally managed and transparent foundations in Latin America. David Winder, director of country programs for the Synergos Institute, a US non-profit that works to improve management of foundations in developing countries, calls Fechac a role model. Corporate and social responsibility is an increasingly important topic in the region as international corporations, domestic companies and policymakers try to bridge the widening gap between rich and poor. Some corporate and private foundations are rethinking the way they manage their funds. Many more should follow their example.

IV. PEOPLES’ FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS THE LATIN AMERICAN CHART OF THE RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OF WORKERS AND PEOPLES FOREWORD The LATIN AMERICAN CHART OF THE RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OF WORKERS AND PEOPLES, adopted under the auspices of the Latin American Central of Workers (CLAT) at the Latin American Peoples' Assembly held in Panama City on November 14, 1978, is an important document and action means for Latin American workers' current and future struggles. In an innovative and unique way, the CLAT fused human rights and the rights of workers and their organizations as a cohesive whole in this Chart, which must be strongly promoted in all the corners of the region to succeed in building up a NEW SOCIETY AS WE THE WORKERS WANT IT AND UNDERSTAND IT. Our joint effort becomes even more important as policies based on neoliberal ideas, tailored by international organizations and accepted by our governments, have weaken the already vulnerable democratic process, both by deteriorating the social and economic status of the largest majorities and by limiting and encroaching on the basic rights of workers, their organizations and peoples.

AIDS Education Challenges Ahead for Latin America and the Caribbean By Annabel Boissonnade-Fotheringham, for the Chronicle Print Home In This Issue Archive Français ... Links Article The growing HIV/AIDS crisis is silently reaching alarming proportions in Latin America and the Caribbean, affecting almost 2 million lives. In June 2003, during the follow-up meeting to the 2001 UN Special Session on HIV/AIDS, the General Assembly called for immediate action from countries in the region and the international community to curb the crisis. Although the highest rate of HIV transmission occurs in sub-Saharan Africa, the Latin America and the Caribbean region has become a source of major concern because of its own almost unnoticed but fast-growing HIV-infected population. The United Nations and other leaders in health and development expressed deep concern about the "relentless growth" of HIV/AIDS in the region. Media coverage of dramatic figures of HIV-infection in Africa has overshadowed the growing AIDS crisis in other continents. Executive Director Peter Piot of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) warned in 2000 that "the recognition that Latin America is facing a growing AIDS crisis is just not there, except in the case of Brazil". His statement did not raise enough alarm bells to stir serious prevention programmes into action. If, according to Mr. Piot, "the response (was) absolutely insufficient" three years ago, figures in July 2003 show that Latin America's status has not improved; in fact, it has worsened.

Living As seen in Transitions Abroad Magazine May/June 1999 (updated 3/2005) Related Topics Volunteer Abroad Volunteer in Latin America The Aftermath of Mitch: What You Can Do to Help By Dianne Brause Last November we were all appalled by the stories and the graphic scenes of devastation and suffering caused by Hurricane Mitch. Over 10,000 people were killed within a few daysmostly in the Central American countries of Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Guatemala. Whole towns were wiped out and families drowned or covered by landslides. With the holiday season coming on, people around the world donated money, provisions, and even their blood so that the refugees might have a little comfort in the midst of their suffering and loss. Perhaps your own gifts helped save lives. But just because the waters receded and the bodies that were found have been buried, life has not returned to normal. So the question is, what can one person do to help relieve this suffering and hasten the rebuilding of lives massively disrupted? In addition to money and supplies, groups are asking for volunteerseither here or in the countries themselvesto provide extra hands, bodies, skills, and creative leadership. Some are looking for short-term and relatively unskilled help while others seek volunteers or extra paid staff who can actively direct the re-establishment of the working infrastructure which was lost in this disaster.
