On September 2-4, 2025, the Sixth session of the Regional Conference on Social Development in Latin America and the Caribbean will take place in Brasilia, organized by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), the government of Brazil and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), which will hold its 17th Ministerial Forum for Development in Latin America and the Caribbean simultaneously.

The Regional Conference – which will bring together senior authorities from social ministries and related entities in the region’s countries – is a key space for dialogue and cooperation between governments, international organizations, academia and civil society to move towards inclusive social development.

At this intergovernmental meeting, ECLAC will present the document  Latin America and the Caribbean 30 Years on from the World Summit for Social Development: Towards a Global Pact for Inclusive Social Development, which proposes a critical and proactive perspective regarding the region’s progress and challenges in relation to social development and social cohesion, poverty reduction and the strengthening of social protection systems, from 1995 to the present.
